Indianapolis is LIVE and on the air!

Finally, 21 months after the idea was first conceived, Indianapolis is now "officially" a part of the DMR-MARC worldwide network and the flagship repeater for Hoosier DMR! We at Hoosier DMR would personally like to thank the W9ICE repeater club for hosting the Indy machine for us at the Hawthorne tower facility. Frank Swindler (WB9OPR) was on-site with us today and assisted with the install, but Bill Akin (K9YDO) and Dale Scheiman (WB9YCZ) were also a big part in the decision making and pre-planning to get the Indy machine on the air for us. If you see those guys, give them a thousand thank you's and buy 'em a cold one on us. We certainly owe them a big one for sure.

Site announcement!!!!

Just got word that there's a possibility of two new DMR sites going up in the upcoming months. A trustee in Terre Haute has a failing/aging analog MSF5000 and is very interested in joining the Hoosier DMR network and a couple of individuals with an MSS in Columbus want to out up a system down there as well!!! Indiana has caught the DMR epidemic!!!! We are on FIRE!!!

Coverage Maps

We added a very rudimentary coverage map to our page today. We estimate this coverage to be complete by summer of 2015. We are still (STILL!!!!!) waiting on frequency coordination for some sites from the Indiana Repeater Council. 

Frankfort, Indiana is live and on the air!

The newest DMR repeater to join Hoosier DMR is in Frankfort, Indiana! Its an XPR8400 hosted by Steve, N9KYB!

Good Job, Steve!


HoosierDMR.net is now live!

Since these DMR repeaters are going up all over the place in Indiana, all of us trustees decided to form Hoosier DMR, the official home for the Indiana DMR repeater network. Check us out online @ www.hoosierdmr.net
