Dave's Frequency List - UPDATED

The latest list of central California ham repeaters and general interest frequencies for scanner listeners and amateur radio operators.  UPDATED 12/31/2008

We use Jim Mitchell's (KC8UNJ) Commander software to program memories in our VX-7. You can find the software here.  We also use G4HFQ's software to program our Yaesu FT-7800R base.  You can download his software here.  G4HFQ will read the Commander files so it's easy to swap databases between radios.

I'm making available my spreadsheet file, the database file for Yaesu VX-7 and FT-7800R and the Kenwood G707 in this ZIP file for downloading.  You can manipulate the Microsoft Excel Spread Sheet or use the other files and software with the Yaesu's clone function it will get you up in running quickly.
