As of approximately 0900 hours the morning 4/14/2026 the 147.195 repeater will be off the air for a few days while the “new” rack is populated with the new Kenwood repeater hardware and the current power supply and duplexers are moved to the new setup. The plan is to bring it back on the air from the clubhouse using the small comet antenna that we have for the VHF UHF rig. This will give us time to test and troubleshoot it. Remember the main 147.195 will have PL tones of 88.5 for both the encode and decode. You must have the encode tone program into your rigs to access the repeater. It is up to you if you want to use the decode tone or not.
