If repetition is allowed and the second letter must be "A", there are 8 options for the first position (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H). For the second position, there is only 1 option (A) since it must be "A". For the third position, there are again 8 options.

Therefore, the number of different three-letter codes that can be formed with "A" as the second letter, and repetition allowed for the other positions, is calculated by multiplying the number of options for each position:

8 options \times 1 option (A) \times 8 options = 64 different three-letter codes.

Thus, there are 64 different three-letter codes that can be formed using the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H, where repetition is allowed, and the second letter is "A".
