Equipment

Austin replaced the connection on the 2m antenna AB6VS and tested linking with AE6KE and it now seems to be working fine. Great work, Austin!

KC6TYG is also working great. The plan is to install a timer at the repeater to cycle it off and on once every night (though the battery backup will mean there is no loss of connectivity).

KL needs to get a new mic for her HT. Thanks for the help with the trouble-shooting!

ARES EC Report - N/A

Austin worked Waves to Wine and it was pretty eventful...a hit and run, lost bicyclists.
