[FRC] Information

[mccrpt at tampabay.rr.com]

Might have changed the renew date, but not online application.  In April, 2016 I made application for 2 repeater pairs on FRC site.  It went well, got fast reply from our District 4 Director, next day.  One rejected, one accepted.  But did take a long time to get final approval I think FRC wanted me to be on the air so could look to hear of any issues.  Probably good way to work it.


Been a while since I renewed my repeaters.  So maybe they changed policy a while ago.  It was confusing with odd even year issue, so had to keep watch on the list.  When one has more than one repeater all could not have been done at once.  thanks for the info.

Ron,

Sorry you are incorrect. They changed it late last year or early this year.

No problem with the FRC. Volunteering for anything is almost a thankless task.

I think they made more work for them selfs with this idea.

Leon,


The odd even renewal year has been the way FRC did in past.  I've been doing for over 20 years.  It was confusing.  The FRC would list exp date, MM/DD/YYYY on the repeater listing.


Good if they have changed, but now they will get lots of renewals all at once and this usually means they will not act on it for months, but then again maybe it will be automatically done for their site.


I've been working with repeaters and FRC for over 20 years, since early 90s.  They are very good coordinating group, one just needs to know how to deal with them, hi.

Ron, N9EE,

Read the home page of the FRC. There is a statement there that say's

NOTICE: All new and renewing coordinations will be issued an expiration date of 9/30/2018.

Nothing about even or odd repeater frequencies.

Where did you get your info from?

Mark,

If you know your FRC district Director email them.  The FRC wants updates every 2 years and if your repeater freq ends in even number the update is to be submitted in odd year and if odd number update in even year.

Normally one can update on the web site, special form for this, but since the site is down cannot do much there as you know.

Here are some contacts for FRC:

Dana, K4LK, Coordinator & Database Manager
k4lk at tampabay.rr.com

District 4 director, Mike Fletcher, NI4M
dir4 at florida-repeaters.org

If you know your district I am sure you can use dir(X)@florida-repeaters.org, but contacting the others should get you to where you need to be.

I am the trustee of three club repeaters in Okeechobee and trying to find out if we're current or not. I understand there are issues with the web site, but I would like to know a status update and don't  who from or how to get information. Any help will be appreciated, or can I be added to the mail list with updated information.

Thank you, Mark Brandel  KF4EA              Mark at MarkBrandel.com
