Brent, I've done this. It's not that bad. Just explain the situation to the other repeater owner and he'll most-likely agree. You might do a coverage study of your new site with Radio mobile to see if your move is likely to effect that other repeater. If you can show that your change in coverage probably won't effect him, that'll probably help you. Also, when I did this, the other trustee and I agreed that both repeaters would be toned (on separate tones) to prevent his users from bringing up my repeater or my users from bringing up his repeater.
I really wish coordination bodies would get with the times and not assign arbitrary protection areas without trying to map the coverage of the repeater site first but... :-) 73, Chris, KG0BP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brent" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, January 23, 2005 9:32 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Short spacing on vhf repeaters. > > Has anybody had to ask another repeater owner/trustee for letter of approval > for short distance for re-coordination.. > > I am looking to move one of my vhf repeaters a few miles east/south east > and another user is on the same freq.(north of me), and I will fall with-in > the 100mile radius.
