Ken, I'm a keen user of C4FM Simplex on 2m, here on the south coast of England we have a Sunday evening net which has been running for about four years and up to fourteen stations taking part some weeks.
Best distance so far with lift conditions, happened a couple of times 106.4 miles.
The C4FM repeater near me is linked to everything via CQ UK, which means C4FM, DMR, D.Star & All-star depending on who's using it at the time, some of the audio is not so good as direct C4FM!
Rig here is Yaesu FTM-7250D in to 2/70 vertical up on the chimney of the house.
Hope to work you via Wires X one day.
