About this episode
What truly makes Ham Radio a superior system are the Repeaters. How do you connect to a repeater so that it can relay our message to the world? One good way is to get the Repeterbook.com app and it will tell you about all the repeaters around you. However, you still need to know 4 major facts so you can import them into your radio. This is what we are discussing today.
