Interesting facts of the 146.25/85 repeater: This was the very first repeater frequency assigned to the group close to 30 years ago. The Short-Winded Net name was chose by WD4JHD Russ and WB4LHD Randy for the repeater because that was about the best name the controller had vocabulary words that would program.
