    Additional Club Repeater Functions (If Equipped)




  • 1) Auto Patch: W7AQ operates two closed auto patches. Auto patch is $20.00 per year. If you want patch privileges, see the club treasurer, officer, or any board member and they will give you the Auto Patch Access Codes. The Emergency Auto Patch is still accessible to all. The procedure for accessing the auto patch is listed below for each repeater that is Autopatch equipped.

    2) Auto Dial: Auto dial is the ability for the repeater to "fast" dial a single phone number by using only 4 digits. Both the Eagle Peak Repeater and Elephant Mountain Repeater have this capability. Auto Dial is only a $2.00 charge. Auto patch is required. This charge gives you access on both repeaters.

    3) Time: If by chance, you really want to know what time it is, and do not have a watch, one can receive the time from the repeater. Press PTT button, and dial 39, release. Eagle Peak, Elephant Mountain, Bethel Ridge and the South Yakima 220mhz repeaters will tell you the time.



    Eagle Peak Repeater ( 146.660 )


    1) Phone Patch

    a) Dialing: Before you can access the Auto Patch, you need the Access Code and Phone Number, oh, and a radio. To dial press the PTT button, dial access code and phone number, all at one time For Example: If the access code is "abcd" and you are dialing "453-1234" you will dial "abcd4531234" then release the PTT.

    b) Patch Down: To bring the patch down dial "#"

    c) Auto Dial: If you call one number on a regular basis, you can get an auto dial number for only $2.00. It replaces the 11 digit number that you normally dial (access code plus 7 digit phone number) with a 4 digit number which is much easier when mobile.


    Elephant Mountain Repeater ( 146.840 )

    1) Phone Patch:

    a) Dialing: The procedure in dialing the Auto Patch is basically the same as the 146.660 MHz repeater. To dial press the PTT button, dial access code and phone number, all at one time For Example: If the access code is "123" and you are dialing "453-1234" you will dial "1234531234" then release the PTT.

    b) Patch Down: To bring the patch down dial "#"

    If you are done with the repeater, clear.
