Your help is needed!: ... To keep Repeaterbook a resourceful tool, we need your help to verify which repeaters are "off the air" or "on the air" or if they are "no longer and can be archived". The more information provided the better! If you have contact with a repeater trustee, please ask them to consider "adding" or "updating" their repeater listing and so they can be added as the repeater custodian. We look to have all listings updated at least once per year and anytime something changes. Listings may be marked as unknown if they are not updated or verified and may eventually be archived which will not show the listing anymore. 73 for now.
