"I properly set the individual repeaters that were NOT closed to the: Freq.
Step (default of 5kHz) Offset (default of 0.60)"

Bill,

I'm not sure about Illinois, but the "standard" offset for 440 is 5MHz
(600KHz is standard for 144).  Here in So. Cal, the offset is "down (-)" 5.
Most other areas use "up (+)" 5.  Try setting your radios to 5MHz offset
rather than 600KHz.
