FWRC CTCSS Policy
- All FWRC repeaters (with the exception of D-STAR) will have a (141.3 Hz) tone on their outputs. (This applies to the 146.940 machine when operating in the analog-FM mode).
- The 146.940 machine (when operating in the analog-FM mode) and the 444.875 machine, will always require an input tone (141.3 HZ) in order to access them.
- The 146.760 and 146.910 machines will not normally require a tone on their inputs to access them. However, if conditions exist such that either machine is being tripped due to unusual propagation, or other causes, it will be possible for the club to implement a (141.3 Hz) input tone requirement, on a temporary basis, in order to allow user access to these two machines.
- The D-STAR machine (442.99375 MHz) has no requirement for a tone on its input.
I have submitted my callsign for the local gateway D-star registration and have not received an approval. If I may ask, how long does to process take to be approved?
Jeff,
Just noticed your question re: D-STAR. Did you ever get registered on the D-STAR system?
I’m one of the guys that ok’s registration requests and it usually only takes a few minutes to get that done.
Please give me your contact information if you have not yet been able to get registered.

Does the FWRC hold a net on the 146.760 2 meter FM repeater?
Also, does the FWRC have a 6 meter am net?
Thank you.
