*We are asking that you please distribute the following to members of 
your organization:*
The cross-band repeat functionality in many of the VHF/UHF amateur 
radios these days can provide a useful function in a number of 
scenarios. However, a number of cross-band repeaters have shown up using 
un-authorized repeater input, un-authorized repeater output, or the 
national simplex calling frequencies (52.525, 146.520, 223.50, 446.000, 
etc.) This practice interferes with repeater operation and mis-uses the 
simplex frequencies. Also, please remember that proper station 
identification is required per FCC Part 97.119
