If a ham wants to set up a repeater he can just do it. As stated before there are local associations that try to keep order in things. The main restriction if you want to call it that is if a repeater is already on the air , you can not put one on that frequency and cause qrm to them or their users. I would say 25 watts is on the low end of repeaters and 50 to 100 watts are more common. The mobiles here are usaully about 50 watt units now. The FCC does not monitor ham transmissions very much unless there is some problem called to their attention. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
