The frequency was 29.660 out, and 29.560 input.
The big hurricane that came through that area in 1992, or
93, took it down.
I don't remember the name of the storm, or the specific W2
call sign of the repeater, but I do remember the courtesy
tone which sounded much like a door bell.
That machine was on the air for at least 10 years, maybe
more.
Two or 3 times during its life, I heard it in Mississippi at
2:00 AM. Needless to say, it would be the only signal on the
band other than a few CW beacons at that time of the
morning.

Hi
Is the virgin island repeater still going? It used to
be on 29.6, and
it was so strong in Kansas that I would listen to it on my
scanner with an
in door antenna. That was before I became a Ham in 1989.
Smile. Good
memories.
God bless,
Mark WZ0K and my beautiful wife Noella
God loves You!

That is an interesting list you found, Howard. I may point
out that in
looking through it they are a bit out of date. I am not too
much of an
expert but the first thing I noticed was they have a
repeater listed in
Sioux City, Iowa. That repeater hasn't been in service
since the early
nineties and most of the hardware from it is part of our
system. Next,
there are two in West Virginia listed on 29.670 that are not
in the repeater
listings for the past year or two. It really is a nice list
though to show
just how much is really out there. It is also a good show
of how much of
the efforts have been focused on two or three frequencies.
I am trying to remember the name of an iphone ap that does
have a fairly
current list on it. I also recall seeing a list on the web
somewhere too
that is fairly current but I can't find which one it was. I
will post both
when I come up with them.

Thanks, Howard.
I'll take a look to see what I can find.
Will certainly be fun to try some of these repeaters with
the TS590 on some
cold winter week-end afternoon when there is not an
interesting contest
going on.
I will first have to read up on how to do off-sets and
especially CTSS tones
with the TS590, though.
