Ya know, we've thought about doing that on a few occasions, but figured
it just wasn't worth the effort. They have several different
dispatchers, and usually get new ones every year. The thing we can't
figure out is why Park Operations insists on having international

I work for a theme park, and our seasonal supervisors carry GP300's. It
never fails; someone's radio ALWAYS gets wet when it rains. They'll be
transmitting for at least 5-15 minutes straight. The company that
maintains/programs our radios never program the TOT in the damn things.
Now, Park
Walk into the dispatch area with a handheld and say
OK, I'm transmitting. Key down and over-ride my thumb on the button and
make your voice come out of my speaker.
Don't feel alone, I had to do just that to make a paving
company dispatcher come to their senses. And the

hmph-the more a repeater is used, the less likely I am to want to listen

Every user radio in my commercial fleet has the TOT set for 30 seconds. In

repeater. Still my longest distance DX on 2 meters.

Unfortunately,
If you are giving a traffic report and it takes over 30 seconds, you are
not giving a report. You are having a conversation. Keep It Short and
Simple. Remember , the person on the other end is trying to filter the

Incorrect. I was passing important information the repeater timed out.

The idea was to restrict traffic to only emergencies, public service,
etc. Problem now is I never find anyone listening there to relay the
traffic

Re: A Monday Laugh
Since most of the repeater controllers have some type of audio
wav/sound file playback... I thought of a great macro to run on
a repeater user/system access timer.

Cartoon Teacher
That's a great one! There is or was an error macro I heard on one of
the repeaters in Atlanta that always chuckled me.
