WHAT MAKES A REPEATER GO ??
|
Yes ! on FOX everything is an ALERT ?? so why not
here ?????
Trip to Scout 06 repeater, replaced the antenna
, wind at about 30 to 40 mph , semi cold on that tower,
installed a temporary antenna , will need to go back next year when it's
warmer and replace the old with the new, further up the tower
WB7DNU and K0IP made the trip,, its 30 miles one way 5
miles on fairley good gravel roads, and 8 on rocky bumpy dirt. the rest on
pavement..
we left at 10 AM got home at 4:30pm a full days work,
picture: old antenna on the top, new,, at a slant on the bottom,
and my car needs a good wash, most of the scratches will
disappear after a good bath.
.

FYI:
This test Pattern has circles,
not ovals, if you see ovals, chances are your windows settings are
incorrect for your monitor. |
PLUS:
if you have a
gas
furnace , hot water heater,
fireplace insert, anything that uses combustion
you need a CO detector |
