[FedCom] MARS Gets New Name As It Fine Tunes Mission

[Bill]

MARS [Navy] in New England has always been pretty busy with the VHF Linked 
Network.
Maybe they will expand into Northern New England.

John, from time-time I get a simplex user on 148.0500 136.5 Hz with no Call 
signs.
Plenty of informal Chit-Chats [some military related, such a Jeep Mechanical 
work]

Here is the known Navy MARS Site info [all repeaters link via other VHF 
Pairs]
The hub seems to be in Framingham MA

148.3750 R 88.5 Hz - Framingham MA
148.3500 R 131.8 Hz - Sandwich MA
150.4000 R 131.8 Hz - Warren MA
??? R - Cummington MA
