From Salmo Mtn lookout:

The antenna's are mounted on the vertical supports under the main structure. For weather protection I guess.

Looked like a beautiful day for a ride! And of course you were getting a really good signal from the 7.36 repeater! Now if I had known you were going to be up there, I might have listened for you! Did you get a new portable?

I did. And the comms set up for my helmet.
I did make a contact.
Hey what's some other 2 meter stuff for up there?

The freq's are in the database.
DNR 159.360 'Republic' & USFS 170.550 'Leona'; plus common and project.
Quiet unless a working fire.
'NE Dispatch' is the consolidated dispatch for both.
Listen for the fire weather forecast around 1000 & 1600 on the DNR side.

I didn't go to the job Corp place, but I did go by the turn off.

Cool Thanks. oh That first pic of Bodie there used to be a fire lookout tower up there. only thing there now are the steps and footings I see now. the job corps center was running it till it blew over in a wind storm winter of 75-76, :roll:,

There was a repeater on 145.190 up near Republic that was down for a long time but think I saw something that suggests that it is up again. You probably could get into the 146.900 and 146.680 up in the Mission/Nannum Ridge area from there also. There is also the 146.620 up near Colville that you would be able to get into.

Thats where something like a Opto freq counter comes in handy!

Thanks for the freq's oh how much dose an opto freq counter cost Might get one :bowdown:

Not an opto but $9.99 + shipping
