TECHNICAL REPORT:
Ricky Eaton KD4HGR told us he and Eric Rodriguez will install the
new 146.61 antenna this Saturday (Feb.29th) he asked for us not to
use the repeater until the antenna is installed and tested. We can
listen and report after they are finished. It should be operational by
SEFTN Net time.

Our Boca Repeater is housed in a facility that just changed hands
and the new owners have been less than responsive in allowing us to
attend to it. Further attempts will be made before we consider moving
it.

The DMR Repeater is working well.

ANNOUNCEMENTS;

plan to attend the Winterfest party to please RSVP right away.

Carol also announced that Steve Adams N4JRW is now a Silent Key.
She will advise us of the Memorial Service sometime in the future.
It was stated that the Repeater Council no longer exists, so it’s
possible to have overlapping Repeaters in the future.
