The W6ZN amateur repeaters are located 45 miles NNE of the city of San Diego, California at an elevation of 5600' ASL, on Palomar Mountain, home of the Palomar Observatory. Excellent signal coverage into San Diego and throughout most of San Diego County, with limited coverage into Mexico and the greater LA area. These are privately owned open repeaters. Both have emergency battery backup to keep them running in the event of a power outage.

Both machines decode and encode PL tone. Using CTCSS (tone squelch) will block out distant repeaters on your receiver.
