Welcome

It is our goal to have open access for the enjoyment of all amateurs that uses our repeaters. However, because of many different systems on the commercial sites and the interference they may generate, some form of tone squelch may be needed. This is currently the case with most of the 440 MHz repeaters as they are open systems but requires tone squelch to access.

The frequencies for the W8AK/r 24/7 linked system are:

  • 444.725 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 123.0 with the transmitter located at the Piqua site.
  • 442.925 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 123.0 with the transmitter located at the Huber site.
  • 444.000 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 107.2 with the transmitter located at the Celina site.
  • 444.275 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 107.2 with the transmitter located at the Toledo site.
  • 146.985 MHz with -600 KHz offset and tone of 123.0 with the transmitter located at the Dayton site.
  • 147.345 MHz with +600 KHz offset and tone of 107.2 with the transmitter located in Sidney Ohio.
These repeater systems are linked 24/7 to provide continuous wide coverage.



Some of the other repeaters that we operate or maintain:

  • The frequency of the WF8M/r system is 443.775 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 131.8 with the transmitter at the downtown Dayton site.
    • This site support IRLP and is node 4267.
  • The frequency of the W8AK/r system is 443.750 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 123.0 and is located at the Sugarcreek Twp site.
    • This is also a 52.525 MHz remote base.
  • The frequency of the NO8I/r system is 442.950 MHz with +5.0 MHz offset and tone of 118.8 and is located at the Huber site. The NO8I/r system is owned by the Huber Heights ARC.
  • 224.300 MHz with -1.6 MHz offset and no tone with the transmitter located at Huber Heights site.

    • Our organizational goals:

    • To promote technical dialogue and discussions on these systems.
    • To encourage more widespread involvement in the further development and maintenance of these systems by ALL amateurs.
    • To develop and maintain systems that are technically superb and of the highest reliability.
    • To keep these systems "at the ready" for any emergency, public safety or public service need.
