Repeaters that I have put in my base rig that I can reach 100%. You may want to
put them in memory of your HT: All of these frequencies have been tested and are
up and running in the Metro West Boston area.

to get off a repeater if the two or more or pick a simplex frequency when
stations are closer enough to hear each other. It is also known as the National
Calling Frequency

The FT 60, when programmed correctly (I advise to save them in memory) should,
at some power level, be accessible to you provided you are not in a building built
with so much steel, it could be a prison.
Memory Scan:
You can scan all your memories if you like. The scanning will stop momentarily if
there's a signal. It will stay on the signal for 5 seconds before scanning continues. If
you hear a frequency you want to use, press the PPT button & you will stay on that
frequency until you press the scan feature again.
How to Scan Memory:
1.
Make sure you are in the memory mode
2.
Press either the up arrow MHZ button or the down MHZ button. It does
NOT matter which one
3. To stop all scanning, just press the PPT button at anytime
