Hello to all users of the Plains 147.140+ Repeater.
 
All S-Com Images used with permission.
Welcome, the New 7330 S-Com Repeater Controller is in and currently we, KC7MRQ and I are advancing in the programming of the new TOY!
Here is a sample of the MAIN ID  being sent from the New Controllers Voice. We also will have a version upload soon that will allow the
Plains Repeater Group to upload up-to 12 minutes of custom *.wav files that can be added to the 7330 Controller to be played in about
any area we would like have the Repeater or LINKS to play them. Keeping in mind... Each PORT ( 3 ) each has their Own independent Speech
and can be played at anytime. There might be some changes coming to the Plains Repeater. The Repeater and Link to So. Browning/East Glacier
or as we call it, The Cut Bank Link will stay the same. OPEN. Any Licensed Amateur is free to use the system. Also if you are interested in helping the
operation costs of the repeater and link you can send any amount you wish to do so. However. If you would like access to the Repeaters 3rd
PORT. Any licensed Amateur will have to Support that part of the system. This will insure that the system is not abused and the only way to access
the 3rd port is with Special Commands. Once a user hears the New Bells, You'll understand Fully... WHY. It is both Corey's and my own target to
make you proud to have such a nice seamless working system at the command of your DTMF Microphone. Personally, I am proud of the
Plains Repeater and I want you to be also. Also, Coverage is going to be increasing too. Another addition is coming next Spring.

Plains Repeater History:

     Hello, my name is Keith Rodgers and in 1985, I at the time had the Amateur Radio Call as WB7WBJ, I am now K7KTR and back then I was an avid outdoor hunter, although thinking of it. I have never heard of an indoor hunter? I have hunted all over Western Montana and that is how I found the Pat's Knob electronic site.

I was hunting in the Plains, area and was driving along the ridge of the Pat's Knob area and with my 2 meter radio and I heard on 146.520 a conversation that Chuck, WA7ZOO and Al, N7AEV and upon learning of their locations,  I thought of how great of a Ham Repeater site that Pat's Knob would make.

I applied with the U.S.F.S. District Ranger RON in Plains, Later that District Ranger would get back into Ham Radio as Ron Wachsmuth N7VLC. The Permit was slow to come but no fault to Ron as he did all he could. There was other politics involved in getting a land use permit and finally in 1989 the permit was granted.  It is hard to believe but the permit is to be renewed this year, and that the last 20 years has gone fast. I might add, That many of the Hams that helped me tune the receiver through the years have long passed away.
