We have rebuilt everything, bench tested it and it is ready to go. Feedline and antenna have already been placed and are waiting for the repeater to be hooked up.

The only thing left to do now is haul everything to the site and plug it in. We will be doing this very soon. Get your radios ready!

We would love to get coverage reports, so please send us a note if you have comments.

The 444.725 repeater has been beefed up and is working well. Please use it in analog mode as you please.

It is now operating at 20 watts from an antenna at 80ft. The 400ft antenna has failed. Tower inspection did not find any physical issues. It will need replaced.

]]> W0AV <![CDATA[146.895 DOWN]]> http://www.sgfrepeater.com/?p=775 2021-06-20T20:57:06Z 2021-06-20T20:57:02Z We recently became aware the repeater was not responding. Upon investigation we discovered sometime in the last two weeks that the TX antenna/feedline has failed. It is showing infinite SWR. We will have to schedule a time to climb and investigate. Due to the extreme heat, this may be several weeks. We are sorry for any inconvenience.

]]> W0AV <![CDATA[145.43 Down for Upgrades]]> http://www.sgfrepeater.com/?p=771 2021-05-21T17:30:01Z 2021-05-21T17:28:00Z The repeater will be down until probably mid June. The building is undergoing electric upgrades including the installation of a new generator. Much wiring and breaker boxes are involved. This is an extensive effort. We are sorry for the outage.
