I plan to attend Dayton this year (first time since 1981) and would like to meet some of those that I've contacts with on the satellites. I was wondering if there might be an "agreed on" 2m or 70cm frequency (other than the normal simplex frequencies) that has been established for our "group"?
Hope to see many of you in Dayton! 73, Chuck, KM9U
Chuck,
Nominally, there are a couple of DARA repeaters which are suggested for AMSAT:
145.410 MHz -600 KHz 118.8 Hz Pl 442.375 MHz +5 MHz 118.8 HZ Pl
I monitor them when driving around, but don't hear much AMSAT-specific traffic. Friendly folks though! Inside the arena, I don't even try, due to the intermod and general din.
73s,
Alan WA4SCA

Those repeaters have been suggested by AMSAT in the past because they are close to the Fairborn hotel where AMSAT has its room block and because the repeater owners have welcomed us.
Setting the record straight, however, they do not belong to DARA; they are run by the Upper Valley ARC.

Dave,
My mistake! Thanks for the correction on the repeaters.
