145.330MHz repeater - Now digital only

by: AJ9L

I've asked the repeater committee and club members via Facebook for feedback; most who provided feedback said they would like to see the 145.330MHz repeater return to digital-only operation.
I also mentioned at the club meeting last night with no discussion or opposition.

I visited the repeater site this morning and switched the repeater to digital only.

If event organizers have a need to use this repeater in analog mode, please let the repeater committee know in advance so we can temporarily enable analog mode.

443.650MHz Repeater will be off the air pending relocation - 145.330MHz repeater to have amplifier reinstalled

by: AJ9L

We'll be powering 443.650 off later today preparing for it to be reinstalled at Oneida Heights.

The 145.330 repeater will have a few small outages while we reinstall the power amplifier. This will increase power output by >=3dB and it will mean the repeater itself can be turned down to 5W to drive the amplifier.
