EAST - K6IS/R "east" is located south of Folsom Lake.
It operates on 145.19- 162.2 PL and 224.40- MHz. Transmissions to
either frequency pair are repeated on both. It is a friendly repeater open to any licensed
Ham operator in the coverage area. Autopatch and speed dial are closed (members only)
however emergency and other assistance is available to all. Please ask on the repeater
for a Control Operator.
Coverage for mobile and fixed stations extends up the valley to Southern Yuba, Sutter, and Colusa Counties, and south through San Joaquin County. Hand-held coverage is available in most of Metropolitan Sacramento.
The transmit timer is set at 1 minute, except during commute hours, when it is 30 seconds long. During daylight hours a dual courtesy tone will be heard, during evening hours a single low volume tone will be heard. Please wait for the tone before transmitting. This resets the timer and prevents being cut-off. During NET operations, timers are shut OFF, however the PL remains ON.
New Photo right - The small tower on the right of the building is our 2m
antenna and soon our 220 antenna. The 220 antennas are at the bottom of the
main tower side mounted. Transmit will remain on the tower, only the receive
antenna will be relocated to the small tower. - Carl, WF6J, 10/20/07
WEST - K6IS/R "west" is located near Zamora, CA. It is on
145.19- 123.0 PL. The squelch tail is set at 1 second. There are no
autopatch, speed dial or crossband functions on this machine. Some comments about the
east repeater apply, except the west repeater has coverage into Placer County.
