Amazing! Many folk stepped up and donated toward this drive and in less than a month met the $5,000 goal for the matching funds. The repeaters are starting to come in and now we can start getting them ready for this summer. THANK YOU ALL!!

Leadville temporarily offline
Even good and new solar panels and batteries have their limits! We’ve had 7 days of no sunshine at that site and need to disable the repeater to protect the batteries until we get a few days of sunshine to recharge them. We’re monitoring battery status and will re-enable the repeater as soon as we can.

Ft. Collins and Akron issues
The Fort Collins repeater appears to be having receive sensitivity issues again. This is a know issue, but seems to have become worse recently. The long term fix is a second remote received-only site which is on our to do list.

New Repeater! Burlington
We have our newest repeater site, Burlington, CO. This extends our I-70 coverage to almost the Kansas state line! It uses the same frequency as Colorado Springs (145.130MHz), but is far enough away from that repeater to not cause any interference.
-
Durango back up!
We have a third ISP up and running for the Durango site, so hoping this one is a charm after having issues with the first two. For these ISP-based sites, only time will tell if they are truly reliable or not, so please let us know!
-
Salida site down
The Salida site is down. We have been able to remotely diagnose the issue and it is a failed PA, so will require a site visit to fix.

Durango getting cranky
The infrequent connectivity issues with the Durango repeater are getting more frequent.
