There is very little about repeaters. Mainly the frequencies they are permitted on and a couple of control issues. http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/regulations/news/part97/ Anyone that has the proper licence can put a repeater on the air. It can be built out of anyting aslong as it operates within the technical rules. There are servral volunteer groups that try to keep order in their area. The FCC does not give them offical say as to what goes on in their area but if there is a conflict and the repeater that is going by the local groups rules will usually win their case. Here is an example of a local group. http://www.sera.org/ ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries.
