Hello North Florida!

Thanks to Jim Carr, KC4MHH, we have another great repeater in the America’s Kansas City Wide family! His repeater is located at 650 feet on a TV tower in Gainesville, FL. The frequency is 444.050. It will default to KCWide, but may be changed to other rooms on demand. This repeater can be reached by a mobile from as far away as Orlando.

Jim also runs a network of 8 other repeaters, including DMR and AllStarLink-connected FM repeaters. Look him up on the web at: http://kc4mhh.com/

Lee’s Summit-West Frequency Change

Lee’s Summit-West Frequency Change

August 18, 2022 WØFH

The Lee’s Summit-West repeater has been upgraded and the frequency changed. The frequency is now 145.410 with a n negative offset. This was previously the frequency of the Louisburg repeater (which has been offline for some time).

The repeater list has been updated with the new frequency. When we’re able to restore the Louisburg repeater, it will be on 147.315.

These changes were required by the repeater coordinating bodies in Missouri and Kansas.

KUMed repeater is back!

KUMed repeater is back!

After a long absence, the repeater at the KU Medical Center campus near 39th and Rainbow Blvd (442.325) is back in the KCWide room. Thanks to Travis Marshall for all his help.

This repeater had been linked to Wires-X via an FTM-100 and computer located near the repeater in the hospital. Because of COVID, access to the equipment in the hospital became impossible. As most computers do, the on-site computer eventually required attention, and we found out that the KU Medical IT department had tightened their internet security and our remote control software no longer worked.

Travis (NIØY) was able to retrieve the linking equipment from the hospital and install it at his home, restoring the link.

New Fusion “Kansas City Wide” repeaters

New Fusion “Kansas City Wide” repeaters

April 18, 2022 WØFH

I am happy to announce we have some new repeaters in the “Kansas City Wide” room. With these changes you have really good coverage from KC to Topeka. 

We just purchased (3) repeaters from the Kansas DMR group. We now have new repeaters in Topeka, Lawrence and Basehor.  As part of the transaction, we needed to change the frequency of the repeaters. Rick WØFH, Kris KUØS and I just returned from visiting the new repeaters and the transition is finished and they all seem to be working well. 

Where these repeaters had been connected to the room part-time before they are now Fusion only 24/7.

For these kinds of changes to happen it takes great people. A special thanks to the KS-DMR group, Cort NØMJS, Gavin NØECQ, Rob WVØS, Brian KCØBS, Kris KUØS, Rick WØFH and Justin NV8Q for their help in making this happen along with a smooth transition. 

The new frequencies are listed below as well as on the Web page. We hope this helps your coverage in your travels around the Metro area. 

FYI, Thank you, Jerry Dixon, KCØKW

Basehor, KS, New 444.625, Old 444.750

Lawrence, KS, New 444.875, Old 444.375

The repeater at Arrowhead is back and connected to the Kansas City Wide room. The antenna is still marginal, but we hope to improve that soon. The frequency is 145.49 with a negative offset.

Signal reports are always appreciated.

The repeater is north of downtown, along North Oak Trafficway at about 40th Street. Coverage is best to the south.

Please break out the radio programming software and add this to your radios. Signal reports are always welcome!
