Virginia's Amateur DMR Linked Repeater Network
Update: Richmond, Powhatan and Petersburg have been restored.
We are aware of a network issue impacting connectivity of some of our repeaters back to the rest of the network. Please stand by for more information as we work to resolve this issue.
After a period of testing, site improvements and troubleshooting noise at the site, the Thornton Mountain system is on air full time effective January 9, 2026. The repeater is located on Thornton Mountain west of Rocky Mount, VA and near Ferrum, VA. The frequency a non-standard +1.4 MHz offset VHF pair of 145.080 MHz (output) and 146.480 MHz (input). In case you are wondering, this is properly coordinated through SERA and is our third VHF repeater on the system. The talkgroup line up can be found on the talkgroup page. This repeater contributes to massive coverage in the Roanoke area, with the local talkgroup being linked between Thornton Mountain, Poor Mountain, Tinker Mountain, Fort Lewis Mountain, Mountain Lake and a BM repeater on Long Ridge Mountain. Thanks go to the Roanoke area team of WB4EOT, N4MGQ, KD4EG, W4KZK and a special thank you to KA4CBB for providing an excellent duplexer to bring this site online.
