This
repeater was first coordinated on 146.625 mHz in 1975 and application
for license filed in July 1975. |
|
|
In
those days Amateur Radio repeaters were required to submit frequency,
antenna, site and equipment data to the FCC. |
|
After waiting
for a terribly long time for the license to show up I contacted
my congressman to inquire about the delay. You wont believe it but
I have it in writing; CB licensing was holding up Amateur Repeater
licenses! |
|
|
I
was licensed as WR4APT on February
13, 1976. I didn't receive the license until March 18, 1976. Who
says the old system was better?
