Of course, there is also the Oklahoma Traders', the “MidCars Swap & Shop Board”, the SouthCARS trading post on Wednesday, QRZ, and a host of other sites, including some local nets. 

What is your favorite site to look for bargains on that new to you radio gear?

Oklahoma is Number 25.

On RepeaterBook, Oklahoma is listed as the 25th most active States.  That's a nice figure.  Looking at the list, one can realize there are other places that are less active.   

That said, please make it a plan to keep your local resource information current at Repeaterbook and Rfinder?  

During the Auxiliary Communications course, Homeland Security announced that the Oklahoma Field Operations Guide hoped to include amateur radio information when it is updated.  OHS is aware of these two resources and will mention them in the OKFOG.  

Also, please consider becoming an administrator for RepeaterBook.  Many hands make light work.  If the site becomes more active, more folks may be needed to keep the data current. 

Repeaterbook is hosting about 3.5 million visitors a month now. For the US 

admins, I thought you might be interested in where the activity is:
