Your repeater should receive good to a -120db. You can get it a bit better with some time tunning. If your repeater is out of the box it will be def and will need to be tunned.

Receive would be 445-447mhz. Preamp necessary? What about driving an amp: any recommendation there? An amp putting out 60-80 watts. Thanks, Brian, k5in
