Does this repeater work in this area?
Unfortunately, I just made a mistake – the previous repeaters in Liuzhou and Nanning were typically active for 40 minutes to 1 hour each time. Now I'm only receiving signals from two repeaters in Baise. This morning, I made contact with a driver on the air, and we agreed to continue communicating later.Then I put the hand-held device in my bag and forgot about it.
In the evening, I went back to school for three hours of self-study. During the second hour, my physics teacher came in and helped us with some problems.As the teacher was writing on the blackboard, there was complete silence in the classroom., myThe UV-5R was transmitting with a clear and bright signal on the repeater's designated frequency.......The sound reverberated throughout the classroom, causing half of the class to laugh.(Fortunately, besides the usual restrictions on phones, the school didn't really care about it. Plus, the physics teacher from Yunnan would often share anecdotes and stories, which kept things interesting for about 5 minutes before he got back to teaching.)
—I not only forgot to turn off my radio for 3 hours, but also didn't receive any signals from other stations between 18:00 and 21:00, and I couldn't even send a call sign on time (frustrating)!
