Camilo,
The other guy that let his coordination expire is out of luck and needs to vacate the channel. Being a past chairman of the ORRC Oregon Region Relay Council. If the guy that has had the channel and not followed the buy laws of the FRC and filed update paperwork. Try to work with the other repeater operator and if he is not receptive to change. Assuming you have official paperwork in hand and a signed coordination. You can contact the NFCC and let them mediate for you or file official paperwork with the FCC and they will shut him down since he is not coordinated. Good Luck.

Then I send an email to the FRC reporting that there is a repeater on that freq, and they found out that the repeater freq belong to KA4DFX according to the coordinator that his permit expired two years ago, and they want the director of district 1 W4HN to contact KA4DFX to convince him to apply for a frequency coordination, but W4HN is blaming me, in his email he told me to listen before turning my repeater on because in HF if some one is having a QSO and you are calling cq,cq, I am interfering someone qso, but this repeater is quiet no qso no one knows there is a repeater, on that freq, its not listed on the new updated FRC website, to make this story short, I am not trying to step On somebody shoes, I just want to contact KA4DFX, to ask him a favor if it's possible for him to put a PL on his repeater, and I don't mind sharing the frequency with him. But looking at qrz he doesn't have an address just (P.O. Box) and no email address. I know it's not my job to contact him, if any one has any suggestion or advice please let me know, I am open for comments Thanks to all. 73 W4CSO Camilo
