We have mostly restored the system now.  We have backup servers running to replace the failed sever.

(May 9 update) We had a power failure at the Thorodin site that was long enough to deplete the batteries.  On power coming up, our main controller for the entire system did not come up and now it looks like some hard power failure where it cannot come back up.  The tech team is working on rebuilding the network using a different server, so connections may be dynamic for a few days.

Salida is back up!  Confirmed it on the 8pm Thursday night net.

We have been having power issues at the site the past few days, so operation has been iffy.  If “just” a power issue, it will hopefully be fully operational once power is reliable again.

We have been expending considerable effort tracking down the current jammer and some copycats over the past months.  Investigation work is normally done without a lot of public fanfare, but from some feedback we are realizing that the lack of publicly visible efforts is leading some to thing we don’t care or are not trying to solve the issue.  This is definitely NOT the case!  Please see this note regarding the jammer.  It is also on our interference reporting page.

Power was only down for a while, YAY! The system is back up.

We have lost main power at the Thorodin site.  We are running on backup battery power.  If power does not get restored quickly, we will start turning the repeater off during lower usage times to conserve battery power.

All is back and working again.

While doing some infrastructure work, we broke something!  All repeaters are in standalone mode right now.  It should get fixed soon.

The Grand Junction repeater works, but is not connected to the rest of the Colorado Connection.  That repeater site is tough to get to during the winter, so it may be a bit.  We have a long shot with someone using a snowmobile, but it isn’t certain.
