I found at a meeting I attended once. never went back, last word was
they were eliminating " Paper Repeaters " I also find Great Lakes
ARRL when you volunteer in 1 week they fire you !!
Last time I'll ever help any of em they are on their own ! besides I
have no time anyway thats my public reason.. Soap box end.

IL Is doing 440-442 now as well. The problem IL has, and IN I
imagine, is that Michigan will not recoginize any new coordinations in
the 440-442 band, and instaead of providing useful data to IL when a
request is submitted for new coord., like MI had a link on that freq,
they just say NO (or don't even respond from what I have heard) with no
reason explained other than they will not recoginize a repeater
coordinated there because it does not fit the bandplan. I fell victom
to that with my first pair. We are close enough in northern IL that it
is important to know what is coordinated in Mighigan. From what I hear
MI dosen't play well with others so IL and some other states are
ignoring them now and just dealing with the problems after the fact. In
my opinion thats BS, but such is life. Not to mention the extra $100 I
had to spend to re-crystal because michigan could't just say "no, we
have a link there" instead of the blanket No. I think theres a
commercial on TV with David Spade working at the MI repeater council
right now ;)
Sorry for the rant, off my soapbox now.
