This is a wide coverage Repeater, and all Amateurs within its footprint are welcome.  This repeater is usually linked with the WA4NC 444 MHz repeater.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#381fd6\"><strong>WA4NC  444 MHz REPEATER<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Located on Beech Mountain, NC  (Elevation 5,500&#8242; ASL)  on 444.575 MHz, this (there&#8217;s more than one!) WA4NC repeater requires a PL tone of 151.4 Hz. This repeater is usually linked with the WA4J 2-Meter repeater.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong> Cross Band Link between Rich  Mountain 2 meters and the Beech Mountain UHF repeate<\/strong>r is now active When the link is active, any transmission from Rich is sent out over Beech and vice versa. You will notice the addition of a low frequency tone burst which indicates that the link is active between Rich and Beech. In the event of system problems, interference, or because of an operational need, it is possible to unlink the repeaters and have them operate independently as they did before the link system was added. The Beech Mountain 444.575 repeater covers western Watauga and southern Avery County, as well as the area near Grandfather Mountain better than does the 147.3600 repeater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CALL FREQ OFFSET TONE LOCATION WA4J 147.360 +600 KHz 103.5 BOONE, NC &#8211; PCRN LINK WA4NC 444.575 +5.0 MHz 151.4\/123.0 BEECH MT., NC WA4NC 443.0375 +5.0 MHz NONE BOONE, NC &#8211; PRN DMR WA4NC 442.0875 +5.0 MHz NONE SUGAR MT., NC &#8211; PRN DMR W4MLN 444.7375 +5.0 MHz NONE JEFFERSON, NC &#8211; PRN DMR W4MLN [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-103","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/103","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=103"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/103\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1909,"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/103\/revisions\/1909"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wataugahamradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=103"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
