I am wondering how much coverage your 33cm repeater gets.
I am intrested in finding out specifically how the base recieve of mobile transmit is, compared to the mobile recieve of base transmit.
It'd be nice to know HAAT and ERP of the repeater site, too.
Thank you.

N4YCI repeater located on Sweat Mountain in Marietta/Woodstock, GA:
HAAT is approx 1398FT.
Antenna: 13db gain omni.
Repeater: Motorola MSF-5000
Power out (of duplexers): approx 82 watts
Mobile coverage, can be accessed from most of metro Atlanta as far south as Hapeville (near Hartsfield/Jackson International Airport), as far north as Jasper, GA (about 44 miles LOS from Sweat) but Jasper is in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Portable coverage, varies, in Marietta, about anywhere when outside on the street you can work it, indoor coverage is akin to a Metro PCS phone- stand in the right spot and you can work it. The farthest I ever keyed it up was in Doraville standing outside Ham Radio Outlet on Buford Hwy (this is about 15 miles due east of Sweat mountain). Can work it pretty well on the streets of downtown Atlanta proper (which is about 13 nautical miles from Sweat).
