I am not a great repeater user.
Last night, on the CDARC net, someone mentioned the 6m FM repeater GB3PX at Barkway, near Cambridge.
Today, I gave it a try. It is on 50.780MHz with a 500kHz shift and 77Hz tone access. After a few false starts when I found out how to select the right repeater shift, I managed to access it. It was very quiet. I called several times but no-one was on.
Later, I may see which other 6m repeaters I can access. Somewhere I shall have to find a list with tone access frequencies.
UPDATE 1925z: Although I can access GB3PX very well, every time I called no-one responded. I can just (sometimes) access the Bury-St-Edmunds 6m repeater as well, but no others. A useful resource for a list of 6m repeaters in the UK is https://www.ukrepeater.net/repeaterlist1.htm?filter1=6M
