Not having been to NYC yet, I don't know for sure, but I have made a
list of candidates I may try.
* KC2RA 146.430 +1MHz, 136.5 PL
* WB2ZSE 147.000- 123.0PL
+ also 147.150- 136.5PL (upper manhattan) (might be 123.0PL instead)
* W2ABC 147.270+ 141.3PL
* http://www.hamrepeater.net/kq2h/ - K2QH linked system. Manhattan at
449.225- 82.5PL.
* LIMARC 146.85- 136.5PL
Maybe you have suggestions too.
