141.3250     Pihanga (Turangi)         Hamilton / Taupo

141.4500     Sanitorium Hill (Cambridge) Tauranga / Rotorua / Whakatane

The Hamilton and Taupo areas are partially cross-linked to the Tauranga/Rotorua/Whakatane group.
You will note that Sanatorium hill is in Cambridge and would seem to be the primary repeater for Hamilton City but is in the Tauranga group... contrary to all logic. Thus you will hear all voice traffic on this frequency but not selcall for the Hamilton / Taupo group.
The Coromandel is partially linked with the Northland channel.
