Repeaters
This page is undergoing a significant revamp. This message will be removed when it is completed.
This section is for listing all known amateur radio repeaters in Mendocino and Lake counties.

For a general listing of repeaters in the region, and to coordinate a frequency for a new repeater, please visit the NARCC website.
Some repeaters listed on this page transmit a CTCSS/PL tone (received by you), in addition to requiring a tone transmitted by you to activate the repeater. If a repeater transmits a tone, this allows you to use the tone squelch feature on your radio. This is particularly useful when at higher elevations where you may receive signals from multiple repeaters on the same frequency. Repeaters transmitting a tone will be listed in the tables below with a Y in the Tone SQL? column.
For any corrections or additional information, please email the McARCS webmaster.
The repeaters listed in this section are linked to other repeaters. This means when you talk on one linked repeater, you are actually talking on all of the repeaters that are linked together! These links take time to be activated, so be sure to push your push-to-talk button for a second or two before speaking, otherwise the beginning of your transmission may be cut off. This is especially important on the countywide linked system.
All repeaters are listed from north to south for each area/county. Locations are approximate.
