VE3YXL Repeater
146.850-
VE3YXL
was relocated August, 2003, 10km south west of Sioux Lookout, off Hwy 116 on the way to
Hudson. It is on a 300' cellular tower, owned and operated
by TBayTel.
On
the left mounted at 80', is the Sinclair 210-C2 fed with 1/2"
heliax for the VHF repeater. On the right at
65' is the Larsen YA-1-420, 8 element antenna
fed with 1/2"
heliax for the UHF link pointed towards
Dryden.
The
VHF repeater consists of a Kendecom
KRP 5000, 30 watt radio with controller, and a 6 cavity Sinclair Q201G VHF
duplexer. The UHF link system consists of a
GE Royal Imperial 30 watt UHF radio, a 6 cavity Sinclair MR-356 duplexer,
an Advanced Receiver Research P432VDG pre-amp and an Astron RS-20A to
power supply.
Here is the town of Sioux Lookout from the tower site.
We
would like to thank TBayTel
for their generosity of allowing them on their tower.
