Hey guys does anyone know if there is any UHF repeaters in Wanganui that walkie talkies can use?

If so what channel and how do i set my walkie talkies to communicate with each other using the repeater?

From here http://zcat.geek.nz/radio/about/repeaters.php

Channel 3 . . . so put your radio on channel 3 and make sure duplex mode is enabled

You must be out of range of the repeater.

Could be caused by:

Units don't have enough transmit power
Not line of sight to repeater
