As many of you know, I (K5GLH) sold my home in July and so the 443.3 repeater has been temporarily moved to another location with a lower antenna. I moved into an apartment in Midwest City, OK for a year until our new home in Oklahoma City is built. Both repeaters have been on and off sporadically on purpose. Since the repeaters are located in an area that is not intended for long term use, they are only on for short periods of time. This is not indicative that our systems are going down permanent but rather dealing with a limited hosting site for a limited time. This situation will likely continue for a year before the systems will be fully serviceable. We have been missing in action (MIA) for quite some time but that is because I have been going to college full time, then worked on getting the house in sellable condition, and then finally moved into a temporary apartment for a year. I just wanted to inform everyone that we have not gone away and are not intending on closing the systems down. As you may have noticed on the main page that our club turned eight years old on September 4, 2010. What a milestone for something that was intended to be an experiment. Things are going well for all of us and we do plan on having the systems back up fully at a time in the future.
Thanks,
Paul, K5GLH
Congrats on 8 yrs Paul! Glad things are moving forward and hope it gets easier over time.
