The Leadville repeater has been taken off line as a preventative measure due to limited power from the solar panels.  Sunlight has been scarce for several days in a row, so batteries are low.  We hope it will be back online in a few days after some more sunshine after this past storm.

It appears the Salida site has been down for some months (October is our best guess) and we didn’t realize it.  We had two reports come in this week confirming it is indeed down.  It appears to be a PA issue as it can only be heard weakly with  a very good antenna.  That is […]

The solar power issue has been improving enough to allow bringing the repeater back online.  We are monitoring battery status regularly to make sure it stays OK.  If power drops again for some reason we may have to take the repeater offline again, but at least for now all is good.
