I will be relocating my repeating station in the near future for better island wide coverage.
Would be nice to catch you guys via EchoLink later.

Jim you just reminded me of the chap in our local Repeater Group who carries the spare/portable 2M Repeater with it's 6 Cavity Filters in the back of his Jimny! :) Great for Hamfests and field days!


So true George, some of my friends in Canada have no room for rear seat passengers, all radio gear more than a repeating station lol. These guys cover every band and with full power. I would be concerned sitting in their vehicles with all that RF energy radiated during transmission LOL

Greetings to you too. This is great, we can arrange to HAM chat sometime soon if we can all get onto echolink. If you don't have echolink in your area, you can download the app onto your phone and connect to my echolink node and we can chat.

Cheers
