Hit.

I heard the wait for a 2m repeater slot here on the Front Range of CO is in the tens of years.

OP gets first dibs...

Thanks!
Do you mean the wait is that long to get a frequency pair?

Eastern Nebraska and western Iowa there are no 2 meter repeater pairs, and only 1 pair on 70cm last I heard.
The powers to be needs to do an audit. Theres stuff listed that hasn't been on the air in years.

@otar - They sell 70cm gear as well - As long as the costs were the same I'll bet you gould swap out the 2m components for 70cm components if you won...

So which is it, 2m or 220MHz?

I mean my club could certainly stand to replace their current 2m repeater, but I'd rather see them put up a brand spanking new 220MHz (1.25m) repeater.

Last chance - 12 hours left...

Me too. Trying the clubs repeater is on its last legs and they don’t have the cash to replace it. Right now they can barely pay the power bill.

Maybe we’ll be lucky. Thanks for the info.

There were folks on their Youtube live stream congratulating a guy named David.  That's all i've been able to find out.

Has anyone ever verified someone winning one of their drawings? As in an acquaintance or friend? My wife and I get tons of the emails and used to enter occasionally but not recently. So did many people I know. Nobody ever won a thing.

I’ve had my own horrible customer service experience with Bridgecom, so I’m reluctant to recommend them to anyone outside of these stroke-of-luck drawings.
