This repeater is a labor of love. I have wanted to put a repeater on the air ever since I was a young ham of thirteen. I have many happy memories of listening to conversations of friends and autopatches on the scanner before I got my ticket, and then later participating in those conversations and making autopatches myself. I hope this repeater through your help can again bring the warmth and spirit of ham radio back to the air. Just remember the repeater is only as good as its users so if you don’t get on the air and use it, then it is just a collection of components sitting there. To use a term from the sailing days, a heart of a ship is its crew, and so to the heart of this repeater will be you its users. I can not nor do I want to be the only one using it. Again welcome, and 73.
