From the antenna, I can't see the repeater because of a couple of condos
that are much higher than my house. That's probably the problem because I
can reach a few repeaters about 4 times farther but not in the same
direction. I wonder how high my antenna should be to solve my problem. I
also wonder if more power, say 150 watts would change anything. I am open to
suggestions.

Ok you antenna gurus, I have a funny problem. Whenever I try to reach a
certain repeater on 2 meters, (146.700-), I can't do it. The repeater is
about 25 miles from here.

If you were where your antenna is, could you see the
repeater antenna through a telescope on a clear day?
If not, what is obstructing your vision?
