The ZBARC sponsors two repeaters. The first is on 2 meters with a frequency of 147.240 MHz (input +0.6 MHz). Operating with the club callsign of WA0FYA, it is an open repeater system . When in normal operatingmode,"The Two-Four Machine" does not require the use of a subaudible tone (CTCSS a.k.a. PL). However, under special circumstances, tone access may be enabled. The tone needed at those times will be 141.3 Hz. Tone access will remain in effect only as long as absolutely necessary.
The second is on the 70 centimeters with a the frequency of 444.350 MHz (input +5 MHz). The 440 repeater also uses the club callsign of WAØFYA and does not require a CTCSS (sub-audible) tone of 141.3 Hz to access it.This UHF system is not ordinarily linked to the 2 meter system but the two repeaters are co-located and use the same controller. The site of the "Washington repeaters" is just south of Washington. The 2 meter antenna is high atop a water tower and has excellent coverage throughout the area. The 440 antenna is mounted atop a phone pole and also provides good coverage.In addition to the club operated repeaters, there are 7 other repeaters operated by ZBARC members.
