Repeater Information
Frequency/Tone
The Skint Chestnut Amateur Radio Society 2 Meter repeater operates on
a frequency pair of 145.110/144.510. The repeater is equipped
with a sub-audible tone unit to eliminate the possibility of
non-amateur radio signals activating the repeater. The SCARS
repeater tone frequency is 88.5 hz.
Location
The repeater is located at an elevation of 1170 feet on a tower at a height of approximately 300 feet
in the city of Douglasville, Ga.

western
Atlanta Metro Area but positive reports have been received from as far
in as the Zoo. The club welcomes feedback
concerning repeater coverage and would appreciate signal reports from
all areas.
