10/30/08 new South Bend repeaters. In left cabinet is UHF repeater and duplexer. In right hand cabinet is (top to bottom) control receiver, controller, repeater, and power supply for both cabinets. The Mastr-II mobile on the side of the cabinet is the link radio.
10/30/08 In the corner is the VHF duplexer, with a DCI filter, circulator and PAR filter to notch out a paging signal. A bandpass cavity doesn't show.

11/20/08 Side view of the repeater, Duplexer on top, Motorola deck below and power supply at the bottom.
11/20/08 A view from the back. Without Loren, KB7APU, this repeater would probably not exist.
11/20/08 Loren, KB7APU, caught peaking around the rack.
01/20/09 Doyle, N7UJK, managed to borrow a Snow-Cat to get us up Capitol Peak to replace the broken antenna. That is the new antenna strapped to the roll bar.
01/20/09 There was still plaenty of snow on the top of the hill. A Snow-Cat can sure make the job a lot safer and easier.
01/20/09 Frank, NM7R, removing what little is left of the old antenna, snapped off by ice and wind.
01/20/09 The new antenna is a handful, but goes into place with expert ground crew assistance.
01/20/09 The antenna is in place. Time to waterproof and secure the coax cable.
01/20/09 A parting shot as we leave. The new antenna is a Diamond X510 dual-band inside the shell of a Stationmaster.
01/21/09 Recon fly-by with Kevin showed that the 224.040 repeater four-dipole antenna is leaning over and appears hooked on the 441.675 repeater antenna. Joe, the County Telecommunications Engineer gives us a wave.
01/22/09 A close up from the tower top showing the 220 antenna. This is a windy site. Ed, K7WAT and Frank, NM7R did the work.
01/22/09 Face-on view of the repaired 220 antenna.
01/22/09 Viewed from an angle, the relocation of the antenna can be seen, dropped a few feet and a third clamp installed.
01/22/09 Showing the north-facing top two dipoles are clear of the tower.
01/22/09 Wind is not the only hazard at these high sites. The APRS antenna shows the effects of ice bombs hitting the ground radials. Fortunately, it still works.
