Hello, fellow hams. I hadn't fired up my 2m or 220 MHz handhelds in a
while and was wondering if any of my fellow hams in the Northern
VA/metro DC area could bring me up to date on what repeaters are
currently operational. The 146.91 at Tysons Corner is on-air but the
long time operational 147.21 Vienna/McLean seems to be down. About the
only 220 MHz machine I can reach (at least with a rubber duck ant) is
the 224.1 in Fairfax, VA. Have some of these machines gone to
private/tone access? Thanks for your time and comment. Sincerely, and
73s from N4GGO,

Thanks for the reply, Lloyd. In the past I relied on the ARRL printed
repeater directory. Does RepeaterBook indicate how recent its entries
are? Sincerely, and 73s from N4GGO,

Repeaterbook is crowd-sourced data.

There are three administrators working VA and one in MD.

Use the Data. If you find errors, submit the change to the ADMIN for action.

If there is an interest, Repeaterbook can use ADMIN volunteers in the States. It's not a hard job.
