Here in central Texas we typically use 123.0 for all repeaters for uniformity,. It makes it easier for folks to remember. there are quite a few on 2 meters and they never cause any problems with each other. WB5OXQ.

Our club has a couple of 2m repeaters; we chose to run them with PL and we picked 107.2 because that tone freq. was not in use in the area. Recently two other clubs who also have 2m repeaters have decided to utilze the same PL tone freq. Does having numerous repeaters PL'd with the same tone freq. increase the probability of the normally generated intermod/mixed signal to now carry within the produced signal a correct PL tone that may land on the input freq. of another local repeater? Is it considered a bad practice to utilize the same PL for numerous repeaters in the same band all located within a few miles of each other? Thanks, dave wa3gin
