====== Repeater Coordination ====== The purpose of a repeater/frequency coordination entity is to try to keep interference between repeaters and their users to a minimum. According to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio_repeater#US_repeater_coordination|Wikipedia]], repeater coordination is not required by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), nor does the FCC regulate, certify, or otherwise regulate frequency coordination. Amateur Radio Repeater Coordinators or coordination groups are all volunteers and have no legal authority to assume jurisdictional or regional control in any area where the Federal Communications Commission regulates the Amateur Radio Service. The United States Code of Federal Regulations Title 47 CFR, Part 97, which are the laws in which the Amateur Radio Service is regulated clearly states the definition of Frequency Coordinator. The purpose of coordinating a repeater or frequency is to reduce harmful interference to other fixed operations. Coordinating a repeater or frequency with other fixed operations demonstrates good engineering and amateur practice. ===== Repeater Coordination in the US ===== ==== Alabama ==== * [[http://www.alabamarepeatercouncil.org/|Alabama Repeater Council]] (N/A) ==== Alaska ==== * [[HTTP://alaskarepeaters.kl7.net|Alaska Repeater Coordination]] ==== Arizona ==== * [[https://www.azfreqcoord.org/|Arizona Repeater Owners Frequency Coordination Committee]] (B) ==== Arkansas ==== * [[http://www.arkansasrepeatercouncil.org/|Arkasas Repeater Council]] (B) ==== California ==== * Northern: [[http://www.narcc.org/|Northern Amateur Relay Council of California (NARCC)]] (C) * Southern 10-m, 6-m, 70-cm and above only: [[http://www.scrrba.org/|Southern California Repeater and Remote Base Association]] * Southern 2-meter only: [[http://www.tasma.org/|Two Meter Area Spectrum Management Association]] * Southern 1.25-meter only: [[http://www.220sma.org/|220 MHz Spectrum Management Association]] ==== Colorado ==== * [[https://www.ccarc.net/|Colorado Council of Amateur Radio Clubs]] (B) ==== Connecticut ==== * [[https://home.ctspectrum.com/|Connecticut Spectrum Management Association]] ==== Delaware ==== * [[http://www.tmarc.org/|The Mid Atlantic Repeater Council (T-MARC)]] ==== Florida ==== * [[https://fasma.org/|Florida Amateur Spectrum Management Association]] ==== Georgia ==== * [[http://sera.org/|Southeastern Repeater Association]] ==== Hawaii ==== * [[https://www.hawaiirepeaters.net/|Hawaii State Repeater Advisory Council]] ==== Idaho ==== __Northern Idaho__ * [[https://www.iacc.online/|Inland Amateur Coordination Council]] __All other areas__ * [https://www.idahoarrl.info/repeaters.html|Idaho ARRL]] ==== Illinois ==== * [[https://www.ilra.net/|Illinois Repeater Association]] ==== Indiana ==== * [[http://www.ircinc.org/|Indiana Repeater Council]] ==== Iowa ==== * [[https://iowarepeater.org/|Iowa Repeater Council, Inc.]] ==== Kansas ==== * [[http://www.ksrepeater.com/|Kansas Amateur Repeater Council]] ==== Kentucky ==== * [[http://sera.org/|Southeastern Repeater Association]] ==== Louisiana ==== * [[http://lacouncil.net/|Louisiana Council of Amateur Radio Clubs]] ==== Maine ==== * [[https://www.nesmc.org/|New England Spectrum Management Council]] ==== Maryland ==== * [[http://www.tmarc.org/|The Mid-Atlantic Repeater Council (T-MARC]] ==== Massachusetts ==== * [[http://www.nesmc.org|New England Spectrum Management Council]] ==== Michigan ==== __Upper Peninsula__ * [[https://uparra.org/|Upper Peninsula Amateur Radio Repeater Association]] __Lower Peninsula__ * [[http://www.miarc.com|Michigan Repeater Council]] ==== Minnesota ==== * [[https://www.mrc.gen.mn.us/|Minnesota Repeater Council]] ==== Mississippi ==== * [[http://sera.org/|Southeastern Repeater Association]] ==== Missouri ==== * [[http://www.missourirepeater.org/|Missouri Repeater Council]] ==== Montana ==== * [[mailto:w7mri@mt.net|Email Don Heide, W7MRI]] ==== Nebraska ==== [[http://www.nebraska-repeaters.us|http://www.nebraska-repeaters.us]] * [[coordinator@nebraska-repeaters.us|Email Shawn Kyker, KCØSWG]] ==== Nevada ==== __Southern__ * [[http://www.snrc.us|Southern Nevada Repeater Council]] __Northern__ * [[http://www.carcon.org/|Combined Amateur Relay Council of Nevada]] ==== New Hampshire ==== * [[http://www.nesmc.org|New England Spectrum Management Council]] ==== New Jersey ==== __Southern/Western__ * Area Repeater Coordination Council __Northern__ * [[http://www.metrocor.net|Metropolitan Coordination Association]] ==== New Mexico ==== * [[https://www.qsl.net/nmfcc/|New Mexico Frequency Coordination Committee]] (C) ==== New York ==== __Northern__ * [[http://www.slvrc.org|Saint Lawrence Valley Repeater Council]] __Eastern/Central__ * [[http://www.unyrepco.org/|Upper New York Repeater Council]] __Western__ * [[http://www.wnysorc.org/|Western New York and Southern Ontario Repeater Council]] __New York City and Long Island__ * [[http://www.metrocor.net|Metropolitan Coordination Association]] ==== North Carolina ==== * [[http://www.sera.org|Southeastern Repeater Association]] ==== North Dakota ==== * [[mailto:ferrara@srt.com|Email Joseph M Ferrara, N7IV]] ==== Ohio ==== * [[http://www.oarc.com/|Ohio Area Repeater Council]] (D) ==== Oklahoma ==== * [[http://www.oklahomarepeatersociety.org/|Oklahoma Repeater Society]] (B) ==== Oregon ==== * [[http://www.orrc.org|Oregon Region Relay Council]] (C) ==== Pennsylvania ==== __Eastern__ * Area Repeater Coordination Council __Western__ * [[https://www.wprcinfo.org/|Western Pennsylvania Repeater Council]] The accuracy seemed OK.
