Hello,
Yes, I have a FT-1DR.
Dan Srebnick mentioned on Facebook: "I'll have DMR @ 433.45 MHz TG9 TS2.
We can connect to Brandmeister or DMR+ depending upon what is of
interest. I'll also have a D-Star DVAP at 145.67 MHz. It should be up
and running Wednesday evening."
It looks like ham digital hotspots are replacing the pirate radio
transmitters of past fests. :)

I assume you have a Fusion capable rig, Eric?
I can bring a RPi based MMDVM/ZUM/JumboSPOT device. It can do all 4
modes concurrently on a first-come-first-served basis.

Hello,
I am not surprised given the hit and miss of website updates.
There are likely other repeaters farther away that are usable at
the hotel with a HT. I can use several Boston repeaters around
nine miles away at my house with a HT, including one on the 900
MHz ham band, while several closer repeaters are blocked by terrain.
I want to try out Fusion as I do not have a repeater close by. I
mainly use DMR for digital, so I am glad there are a couple
repeaters nearby.
That is one of the many reasons I like going to the Fest. I can
play radio in a different environment.

Eric et al,
The Phil-Mont machine on 444.800 is now a permanent Fusion C4FM
machine constantly linked to America-Link (FCS002-90). It's my
local machine here in Wayne, PA.

Hello,
I remember years ago bringing my HT with me when the SWLFest
was in Kulpsville. I was disappointed at the lack of
repeaters in the area. The problem that I still run into is
ham repeaters are listed by location. It is difficult to
figure out if a location like Souderton is nearby when you
are not familiar with the area. One way I overcome the
problem is to use Google Earth to map out the repeaters I am
interested in and create a kmz file. I did this for repeaters
around Plymouth Meeting. It turns out there are a few within
a short distance. I also found some repeaters listed as
Philadelphia are actually sited in Roxborough, so they are
closer than the city and even visible from the hotel.
Here is some information I gathered from local repeater group
websites.
W3QV The Phil-Mont Mobile Radio Club http://www.phil-mont.org/
Roxborough 147.030 MHz offset +0.6 MHz CTCSS 91.5 is
usually linked to 444.800 MHz offset +5.0 MHz CTCSS 186.2
full time
There are also 2 Meter remote receivers in Center
City (Philadelphia), Lansdale, and Southampton.
W3WAN “The Wide Area Network Repeater System” or WANRS.
http://www.wanrepeater.net/
Roxborough 441.700 MHz offset +5.0 MHz CTCSS 74.4
This is part of a statewide system of linked repeaters.
WR3IRS The NJ-NY-PA DMR Network
https://www.n2jti.net/home.html <https://www.n2jti.net/home.html>
Roxborough 440.650 MHz offset +5.0 MHz CC1 DMR
W3SBE Philadelphia Broadcast Engineers Amateur Radio Club
Roxborough 442.550 MHz offset +5.0 MHz CTCSS 91.5 is
usually linked to 927.8875 MHz offset -25.0 MHz CTCSS 91.5
full time
These repeaters maybe off the air as the group does
not seem to be very active.
K3PDR Philadelphia Digital Radio Association
https://www.k3pdr.org/
Wyndmoor 146.610 MHz offset -0.6 MHz D-Star
Wyndmoor 445.18125 MHz offset -5.0 MHz D-Star
Wyndmoor 445.73125 MHz offset -5.0 MHz CC1 DMR
Wyndmoor 447.475 MHz offset -5.0 MHz Fusion
KB3BKH Unisys Amateur Radio Club Bluebell
Bluebell 447.025 MHz offset -5.0 MHz CTCSS 131.8
Bluebell is a short distance north of Plymouth
Meeting and home of some good Korean BBQ!
N3CB
Norristown 448.675 offset -5.0 MHz CTCSS 131.8
