What is a GMRS repeater, and what does it do?  Wikipedia tells us a   radio repeater  is a combination of a radio receiver and a radio transmitter that receives a signal and retransmits it, so that  two-way radio  signals can cover longer distances.  A repeater sited at a high elevation can allow two mobile stations, otherwise out of  line-of-sight propagation  range of each other, to communicate. [1]  Repeaters are found in professional, commercial, and government mobile radio systems and also in  amateur radio .  The 462.625 and 462.675 GMRS repeaters sit on High Potosi at 8050'.
