[edit] Repeater Information

See the Wyoming Repeaters page for more.

[edit] Standard Offsets

  • Traditionally, repeaters are named for their output frequency.
  • Unless noted in a repeaters listing, the following standard offsets apply.
Standard Repeater Offsets
Output Mhz Direction Offset Mhz
51 - 52 Neg 0.5
52 - 54 Neg 1.0
144.51 - 144.89 Pos 0.6
145.11 - 145.49 Neg 0.6
146.0 - 146.39 Pos 0.6
146.61 - 147.0 Neg 0.6
147.0 - 147.39 Pos 0.6
147.6 - 147.99 Neg 0.6
440 - 445 Pos 5.0
445 - 450 Neg 5.0
  • Taking the published output of 146.940Mhz and the standard offset indicated, that repeater's input frequency is 146.340Mhz.

[edit] Voice Repeaters

All repeaters listed are 'open' to all licensed operators.

[edit] Linked Systems

[edit] WyoComm

WyoComm is a growing, not-quite state wide linking system that allows voice communications across large areas of Wyoming with common 2m gear - often hand helds! See the WyoComm page for information and details. See the Wyoming Repeaters page for more.

[edit] 2m Repeaters

This Page has coverage maps - may be useful in deciding what repeaters you want to use.

  1. 146.940 123.0hz tone - W7VNJ
  2. 145.235 100hz tone - W7VNJ
    • Local area (metro) at the W7VNJ tower site
    • Local coverage map
    • note: 145.235 also transmits a 100hz tone on it's output. This allows each operator the option to use CTCSS on their receivers. Wether or not you choose to use CTCSS, repeater usage and operation is not changed.
  3. 146.640 173.8hz tone - KD7AGA
    • Echolink repeater on Casper Mnt.
  4. 146.910 100.0hz tone - ??
    • Douglass group repeater - has a 70cm link to Wheatland(?).
  5. 146.805 100hz tone - ??
    • Copper Mountain repeater - Covers: Riverton, Thermopolis and Lander(?)
    • Linked to Rawlins.

[edit] Autopatch repeater

Please read the "Rules of the Road" for autopatch use.
  • 147.280 + 107.2hz tone

Sorry, this system does not have reverse autopatch.

[edit] Operational notes:

  • Use * (star) to "Bring Up" the autopatch - dial a call.
  • Use # (pound) to "Down" the autopatch - hang up

[edit] Coverage

This page has coverage maps for the W7VNJ repeater with autopatch.

[edit] 70cm Repeaters

  1. 449.900 88.5hz tone - KD7AGA - Located at the W7VNJ tower site
    • 10 meter remote base on 29.60 Mhz
    • 6 meter remote base on 52.545Mhz
  2. 449.575 173.8hz tone - KD7AGA - IRLP node 7077.
note: this repeater also transmits a PL tone. It is suggested you enable CTCSS in your radio. 
See The KD7AGA IRLP DTMF page for some of the customized, local commands available
  1. 449.500 100.0hz tone - NB7I

[edit] Repeater etiquette

A very basic primer on how to not embarrass yourself - too badly - on the "local repeater".

[edit] Digital Systems

[edit] APRS infrastructure

All APRS traffic is on 144.390 - Unconnected Information (UI) frames, AX.25. Traditional paths using RELAY,WIDE or WIDEn-n and the newer WIDEn-n only paths will work. TRACE and TRACEn-n are also supported. Please keep your paths reasonable. 2 or 3 hops is usually sufficient.

  • Suggested paths:
    • Mobiles: WIDE3-3
    • Fixed Stations: WIDE2-2

Excessive paths (such as WIDE7-7, etc) will often land you on a digipeater's 'LID List' - blocked out of that digipeater. This isn't a punitive action - but rather an attempt to protect the RF network from packet floods in neighboring areas.

[edit] Internet Gateways and public servers

  1. KC7ZRU-15 - Casper I-gate, West side
    1. aprsdCSP - A rocky mnt. regional server - full APRS-IS feed
  2. KE7AZF-1 - I-gate, East side (occasional, fill-in and backup)

[edit] digipeaters

  1. KD7AGA-5 - Copper Mnt digi
  2. KD7AGA-6 - Casper Mnt digi
  3. KD7AGA-7 - Douglass, WY digi (Currently OFFLINE until a new site can be obtained)

I know of no connected mode amateur AX.25 activity in Wyoming.
