Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater Offsets and Vanity
Ken - It was a toss-up between W2ARK and N2ARK but I thought some might think I was into drug enforcement and would toss my van looking for the evidence locker. I plan to set up itinerant repeaters in the van on 2-meters and on GMRS using a Kenwood TKR 750 and a TKR 850. They'll be simplex repeaters because of coordination problems on 2-meters and the absence of 467 MHz GMRS frequencies on the bubble-pack handhelds. Any suggestions?

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater Offsets and Vanity
Dick - That's a good idea. I was thinking about a couple of six-packs of ARK Light in the cooler, though.
