W4UA Amateur Repeater Site 

2m & 440 (70cm) Repeaters

High Point Amateur Radio Club supports two repeaters: 147.165 MHz and 443.900 MHz.  The call sign for the repeater site is W4UA. The 2 meter repeater is located on top of the High Point Regional Hospital building just northwest of downtown High Point, NC and have emergency backup power.  The 70 cm is hosted at the RFMD building in north High Point, in the KD4RF club facilities, to give emergency services between the GSO airport area and North Main Street in High Point, including the Cone hospital off of Hwy 68.

No tone is required for access. Input frequencies are 147.765 MHz and 448.9 MHz, respectively.  Autopatch is enabled only during emergency operations.  Amateur repeater frequencies, including W4UA's, are coordinated through SERA, the Southeastern Repeater Association, Inc.

The HPARC is indebted to the High Point Regional Hospital for the location of our repeater site. In the photo, you can see some of the many antennas that share the site. The 2-meter repeater antenna is visible from the ground northwest of the building.
