I've been off the air for many years since I sold some of my equipment but my neighbor loaned me his extra handheld (VHF/UHF) last week since he got a new one. I've gotten it to where I can bring up the local repeater, 146.79-.19. I have yet to hear anyone on this Kerr County repeater since I got this handheld.
