[edit] WyoComm
An RF linked repeater system in Wyoming. At no time is any traffic or signaling carried by a VoIP or other wired link, such as the Internet. It's all done 'on the air'.
No, WyoComm is not HERC and does not use any of the HERC resources. This is a new effort headed up by 3 hams and involving a broad community that happen to also be active in the commercial side of things. This affords them the unique opportunities required to setup such a high quality, linked repeater system.
Currently - keying up on any one of these repeaters allows communications to all the others. The link is 'up' all the time. The links are dedicated UHF 'back-haul' systems.
See the Wyoming Repeaters page for other repeater info from around the state.
There are no fees or 'memberships' required or offered to use this system. It is open to any and all licensed Amateur Operators.
Still, this all costs - a lot. Money, time and equipment. These guys deserve our thanks and support for their contribution to the Wyoming Amateur Community.
[edit] Hub site: Copper Mnt
[edit] Rawlins
The .390 repeater located North of Rawlins on 'Nine Mile Hill' is linked to the WyoComm hub on Copper Mnt. There is an 'extender' in Rawlins that helps cover some of the 'black holes' in downtown Rawlins.

Extender information? (Need lat long, antenna and power info to create coverage map)
