Amateur Radio Repeaters covering I-95 in Georgia

The repeaters and simplex frequencies listed below are the ones on which you will find much of the VHF/UHF amateur radio activity in the Coastal Georgia area, especially along the I-95 Corridor. It isn’t comprehensive, but this list will give the new ham or visiting ham the best places to look for activity.
