Thanks to Mike K7AIH and Ben KC2VJW this machine is back online!  A local landowner revoked the only access to the site.  The commercial folk had to use helicopters, we had Ben and Mike that scouted and hiked an alternate route by foot.  Helicopter access wasn’t affordable, so thanks Mike and Ben.

We are streamlining our interference reporting from manual emails to a form-based system so that we can better create the database we need to build up our case with the FCC.  We’ve also added a “Live” button if you happen to be able to report in real time that will flag appropriate folk who may […]

This repeater is back online.  We still have plans to improve the receiver performance

Remodel work is done and the repeater is back!

The host site for this repeater is getting remodeled, so the equipment is being disconnected temporarily.  Expectation is that the repeater will be back online some time during this coming weekend.

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.
