Company Introduction
History:
Started 2001 in down-east Maine as Robbierabbit's Official Maine 2-Meter
Repeater Guide.
Popular with truckers, we have since produced reliable 2-meter repeater charts for many states and interstate highways by testing in the field at locations separated by 50-60 miles (to avoid gross overlap), 2-meter having a range of 70 miles in flat country; users may interpolate as necessary. Charts are at this time offered free to the traveling public for promotion. We encourage users to provide them to friends.
Operated by Rob Palmer, WA1ZMQ, B A, Geo Wash University
Customers: Travelers, including foreign visitors, especially truckers
Brand Name: Western Trucker Official 2-Meter Repeater Freq. Charts
Quality: The only such guides with exclusive field-testing on the world market, when innovated; we have repeat business, and, despite imitators, we were first. Others derive information from data bases or other sources, and often reflect license applications or intent; our charts are tested on location in the field to confirm that they reflect actual working repeaters and that any access tones work.
Equipment:65-Watt state-of-the-art transceivers coupled to 5/8-wave mobile antennas operating within the approved two-meter bands (144.000 thru 147.995 MHz VHF FM); charts are edited in M/S Word; distributed by E-reply attachment from field locations, providing prompt response to E-requests.
Further purpose: To provide travelers within the U. S. With any other publications or equipment to enhance their journey. We are currently exploring the possibility of producing small, inexpensive polarizing filters with a generic design to be attached to simple digital cameras.
