Striped Peak is geographically located northeast of Joyce and west of Sequim and Port Angeles. Located in the central part of Clallam County, it allows for hand-held radios to be used in most of the Port Angeles area and all of Joyce. In Sequim, hand-held coverage is marginal through the Striped Peak receiver but is available through the east end remote receiver (77Hz tone).
In the west end, coverage is much more marginal due to heavy mountinous terrain. High-power mobile and base stations must be used. Many lowland locations can hear the repeater weak, but may or may not be able to access the repeater. The west end remote receiver (186.2Hz tone) allows easier access for users in this area. Higher locations typically have no trouble receiving or accessing the repeater.
Radio PropAgation Study Maps
A number of radio propogation studies have been performed to give a basic representation of the repeater’s transmit and receive coverage. Although these studies were adjusted to depict actual coverage as accurately as possible, all data is approximate and should be used at everyone’s own risk. These studies are also subject to atmospheric conditions.
The software used to produce this study is ‘Radio Mobile’ by Roger Coude VE2DBE
Dark orange indicates solid to slightly marginal signal.
Light orange indicates marginal to no signal at all.
