[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 2425356, member: 24583"] Try tuning to the local NOAA WX continuous broadcast frequency to see if you can hear it. Most Ham equipment will receive way above and below the ham bands. Might look the frequency up on the internet. Tulsa is 162.55 and can be heard for a 50 mile radius, do not know what OKC one is, but it will be pretty close to it in the 162.XX range. It will be transmitting 24/7. Kind of a basic question, but did you have the squelch just off the open fuzz level? Might make a difference if you are in a low signal area and it might not be breaking the squelch set point. I would think you should have a good signal at your location if I am visualizing it correctly. Do you have the receive PL Tones set to off? If you have it ON it will not break the squelch unless it hears a specific tone in the background which that repeater most likely does not have. All I can think of right now. I am east of Tulsa, so cant give much additional help. Let us know what you find out. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
