WB6ZVW – New Hotness

On: By: N6DZK

2016-05-07 17.42.50After a bit of a hiatus due to technical issues, this great asset to amateur radio for the Bay Area and beyond is back on the air. A group of volunteers made the trek to Crystal Peak this past weekend and removed the old repeater system and replaced everything, from the cabinet to the batteries. In the coming weeks the internet uplinks will be completed and the repeater will also have echolink and IRLP capabilities to further enhance its capabilities. Many thanks to those that helped plan and execute this important update. You can read more details on the GVARC web site.

  1. Works great from the different areas that I have tried.
    Sorry I was out of town and couldn’t help.
    Great job everyone!

  2. Ray–I thought we left it standing upright when we closed the door Saturday. Did it fall over? 😉

    Glad you took pictures! I totally forgot, even though I was planning to take a series of closeups to document stuff. Oh well, that’s just me.

  3. So what I am learning is that IOS pictures have messed up EXIF data and so when you upload them to WordPress they sometimes display sideways, even if you have uploaded them with the correct orientation. How cool is that?
