Update Nov 11: Repeaters are back on-line, GFCI outlet has been reset, but not yet replaced.
——
Update Nov 10, 2024: The GFCI outlet has probably tripped again. If the repeater does not function for the Nov 11 morning net, we will use simplex frequency 146.550 MHz.
——
Fall / Winter is here, and repeater access is more dificult. Tony VE3DWI visited the feedmill site and reset the (unnecessary) GFCI outlet in the repeater cabinet to restore power. Also, since then Tony has replaced one of the “curtains” on the cabinet doors – should make future access easier. We owe Tony a big “Thank you” for this.

On another note, the new repeater for the Firehall is ready to go, and only needs to have the install scheduled. Frequency is 145.490-, FM CTCSS Tone 131.8, C4FM ID 0, auto mode select. It will also have Wires-X connectivity: VA3EFH / Node 99518, Room 09518. Once everything is set up, this repater will appear in the repeater list below.
