Thank you Ken!

224.600 is the proper freq.  Had a "brain check" with my 1st E-Mail that Tony caught.

If you hear anything please see if you can get the call of the repeater and, if possible the location.

Tks es 73,

I am located at the highest elevation in Hunterdon County, about 1040 feet above sea level, in northwestern Lebanon Township very close to Crystal Springs and Teetertown Preserves.  I have an outside 220 vertical antenna about 30 feet above the ground and turned on the external receiver preamplifier.  So far I have not heard any activity on either of the two frequencies.
