A Place On The . Net

Mark and I are in the process of putting everything together now.  With luck we'll get everything up on the mountain before the Independence Day weekend.

We're using Vertex VXR-7000 repeaters for both VHF and UHF.  That's right, we're adding another repeater, this one will be on 444.075 MHz with the standard +5MHz offset and will identify as K7MEE.  The controller is, as planned, an RLC-3.  We're attaching a Motorola GM300 VHF radio that will link to various other VHF repeaters in the region.  And there will be a UHF GM300 to use for linking to other UHF repeaters in the region as well as other utility uses.

We've got some alignment left to do and I've got to tune up the duplexers.  But we're also likely to need some help mounting the antennas on the phone pole up there.  I sure could use help with that so if anyone is willing, please speak up.

That's the plan.  Stay tuned to this forum because I'll post the operational details here once it's up.
