A Focus on Repeater Expertise

The Hoosier Repeater Builders (W9HRB) caters specifically to repeater enthusiasts:

• VHF/UHF: The focus on repeaters implies a strong understanding of VHF/UHF communication, crucial for repeater operation.

Building a Strong Repeater Support Network

While the Hoosier Repeater Builders (W9HRB) hold only one annual meeting, it provides a valuable opportunity for collaboration:

• Annual Meeting: They hold a single meeting on the 3rd Monday of August each year at Tri-County Travel Trailers in Russiaville, IN. This meeting offers a chance to connect with other repeater enthusiasts, share knowledge and experiences, and potentially contribute to ongoing repeater projects.
