I am not that familiar with the area you are in (The city name does not ring any bells) But I often spend time near Seneca, SC let me look you up. Hold on.. Alas that's a long way from Seneca.. Check for Radio Nets.. Often if there is an active repeater near you there will be a Net at least one night a week,, That's the repeater to user.

7 miles is a "Back yard" distance... You should be able to hit repeaters 20 miles away with that hand held. and if you use a decent external antenna.. 40-50 miles
