REPEATERS UPDATE - IT'S BACK! - Thanks Gary and Stan!

The 146.760 repeater located near SW 44 & Western is now operational.

Please note that A TONE OF 141.3 IS NECESSARY TO USE IT. It uses a -duplex.

There is still a little "tweaking" to be done on it, but it should serve us well.

Thanks to Gary Stillman AE5HC and Stan Bradley NS5B for spending a lot of time

and effort getting it back in working order.

Give it a try if you can.
