Equipment consists of a GE Master II repeater and a GE Custom MVP UHF link transceiver. The controller is an RLC-1 from Link Communications. Duplexers are from WACOM. The UHF radio links the site to the 145.310 Mhz repeater on Mt. Thorodin. We pay $120 per year rent for our Akron site.
Antennas consist of a VHF vertical antenna for the repeater, with an eleven element UHF yagi link antenna. The 145.400 Mhz repeater site is easily accessible year around. This is one of the few sites we maintain which doesn't require 4 wheel drive access.
