Great News our Repeater is back on the air, here is the latest information

from Ken AE6LA on happenings

From Ken AE6LA, reporting on CARS repeater situation

including pictures.

Our CARS repeater is back up.  I’ve secured the South side mast that’s the remote base and replace the North side mast which was APRS with a push up mast and X-50.  This pushup was used here when we 1st moved here and had further service for us at the Summit site.  It’s experienced but not too sound.  I removed our antenna from the bent over North mast and move the piece with 2 uhf yagi across the spur road with the other damaged antenna (I think they are repairable.).  

We need to replace the North mast and antenna sometime soon

We’ll be counting on Knox to get us a good location on his replacement tower.
