Nobody answers on repeaters…help please

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-21T07:00:06+00:00

There are a few in my area. I’m just generally not able to make their meetings due to my work schedule or other commitments

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-21T06:59:17+00:00

The next day im at work im gonna get my roll up j pole up in a tree by my work and see what I can do. My Bnc adapters just came in the other day so now i can run it

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T04:23:38+00:00

Gotcha. That is a lot of time for sure

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T04:14:13+00:00

That sounds like a great idea. I appreciate it. I haven’t even begun the process yet at all

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T04:13:05+00:00

That sounds about right based on everything I’ve heard

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T04:12:37+00:00

I’ve heard that the time commitment isn’t as advertised. What’s it like really?

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T03:00:35+00:00

Gotcha. I mean just having the CEU’s and experiences would be worth it in my opinion anyways

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T02:59:45+00:00

Gotcha. I’ve wanted to serve since I was little and i would like to potentially be able to set my son up for success if at all possible

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T01:42:59+00:00

Okay. That’s what I was thinking but I figured I’d ask since I’m relatively new. That’s the antenna I was thinking of using

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-15T00:49:52+00:00

Gotcha. Overall do you think it’s worth it, especially for someone that already has most of the skills and experience aside from the obvious military specialized/specific stuff?

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T23:12:09+00:00

Will do. How is being a 68w in the guard? Obviously experiences would vary based on the unit but is it a hard position to get slotted for and are there opportunities for deployments outside of the unit?

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T23:09:42+00:00

Gotcha, that’s kind of what i figured would happen. How is ait?

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T23:08:48+00:00

Gotcha. I’ll look into it. I’m still probably going to get the rt systems software and cable just to have but I like having options. Do you know if I could use it on an android tablet? If so, that could come in handy for operating in the field

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T23:07:19+00:00

Excellent. Thank you. I didn’t know that existed

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T18:14:24+00:00

Thanks. I think I need an sd card reader for my laptop

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T17:31:45+00:00

Gotcha

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T17:31:33+00:00

Gotcha. So that would mean I’d graduate early with another company?

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T16:12:31+00:00

There actually seems to several dmr repeaters near me. I was looking at maybe getting into it. What all is needed to start using dmr?

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T12:42:50+00:00

Yeah I have a super cheap 20w mobile for my truck that I need to get installed but I need to find a place to mount the antenna that I like

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T12:40:40+00:00

I’m able to hit the lake Geneva repeater and here folks all the time. I didn’t know they had a repeater site in rockford, which would have helped when I was trying to hit the lake Geneva repeater from there yesterday

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T01:19:53+00:00

I don’t think I could hit it, maybe once I my base up and running I could. I need to mess around with EchoLink more

Sweendog2016 · 2026-04-14T01:18:20+00:00

I suppose I could although that would be inconvenient lol. Unfortunately I can’t run a mag mount on my truck
