JTRG operates three open and coordinated repeaters in the North Palm Beach county area. We invite and encourage all licensed amateur radio operators to use the repeaters when you're in the area. The map to the left is interactive so click on the blue placemarkers for additional information regarding each repeater site.

146.625 /110.9 - This is an active repeater, with a formal Ragchew net running on Tuesdays at 8pm and very reliable (albeit informal) work-day commute net keeping up with local traffic conditions. This repeater also serves as the North Palm Beach County's ARES/RACES repeater. Be sure to keep an updated copy of the ICS205 EMCOMM frequency list.

146.715 /110.9 - This is our secondary VHF repeater is located in West Palm Beach. We have a slowscan net on that repeater each Wed night at 7:30pm. 

444.225 /110.9 - This is JTRG's primary UHF repeater serving North Palm Beach County.

JTRG Membership - Our repeaters are open to all, but for regular use, and club membership, we encourage you to join JTRG for an annual donation of $30 per family. Please visit the membership page for an application and mailing address.

CERT Repeater - You're also invited to use the Jupiter Farm's CERT repeater operating on the UHF frequency of 444.400 PL 110.9 and also includes EchoLink (WA4JFC node# 364883.) For EchoLink operating instructions, please review the following document. There's also a formal "emergency communications test" Net conducted on this repeater each Monday at 8pm. This is open to all licensed amateur radio operators within the operating coverage area and allows us to test our radio equipment under simulated emergency conditions. The Net begins on the 440.400 repeater and then moves to simplex, 146.400 for a simplex test.

GasBag HF Net - At 7pm EST (11:00 UTC,) you can find a number of your South Florida friends and meet some new ones at the HF GasBag Net on 7.235MHz.
