[450] repeater report

[Bob]

Just finished "kerchunking" every known 222 repeater pair, using every known PL.
All done on the CX-333 @ 45' with no amp, no preamp.
Here is the list of what I got and how I got 'em.

By the way, signal report will be represented by "sB" (busy light, which is roughly 0-3 S-units best I can figure), or numerically (s1-s5), based on my 5 segment meter.

There you have it for what it's worth. 

I'm not really impressed.  Is it the antenna?  The band?  Do people not put enough effort into their 222 machines? 
Hard to say.
