N8IG Repeater update

KE8ANU - Tue, 02/05/2019 - 10:51am

The N8IG Marysville Repeater is without its Controller for next week or two, but is still operational. However, it is on the local on-site receiver and antenna, not the Remote Water Tower (high) Receiver site. There will be no courtesy tones or announcements for this duration. The receive range may be a bit shorter for the time being, but the N8IG Repeater remains operational.

The Controller was removed last (Monday) night by Joe K8JWL and Paul N8IG so Ed KE8ANU can take the Controller and the new Kenwood Repeater to Arlin KD8EVR. Arlin will program and tune the new Repeater to be our new N8IG Repeater. Arlin will also integrate our oldie-but-goodie Controller to this new Repeater. These will be put up on the new EMA Tower when it goes up.

Transmissions are scheduled to begin on Friday, February 15, at 0845 UTC (3:45AM EST)and run through Sunday, February 17, at 1725 UTC. (12:25pmEST)
SSTV images will be transmitted on 145.80 MHz using SSTV-mode PD120. These can be received using equipment as simple as a 2-meter handheld radio, a scanner that covers that band, or even an online WebSDR receiver. Copying the images is as simple as connecting the receiver’s audio output to the audio input of a computer running free software such as MMSSTV.

 

See the link for the full text of the article for more information about the issues that happened last weekend that caused them to re-do the SSTV transmissions this weekend.
