Local ham repeater upgraded
Randy Scott, KC4ULS, one of the local Emanuel County amateur radio operators has upgraded his two meter radio repeater station. Ham radio operators in the area are now able to communicate with other Hams in a fifty mile radius of Twin City with relatively low power equipment.
Randy received assistance from area Hams, WB4OLL, AA4RI, WA4EHO and WIJRM. They helped him assemble and install the equipment.
Amateur radio operators use repeater stations like this one in Twin City for casual conversations and to provide emergency communications during storms and other emergencies when regular communications fail.
Any licensed amateur radio operator is invited to use the repeater which operates on 146.790 Mhz.
