One day in the late summer of 2018, Ed - KB8QEU - was walking from Lancer toward the back side of Bull Creek and was taking a lot of pictures of the trackage and the load-out for later modeling in HO scale model rail road diorama.

After looking at the pictures, he saw a tower in far hill! Ed noticed it was in line of site of his residence. After researching the path, it was truly in LOS!

So, here, below, is a plan for that site. It sees South Williamson, via 5.825 Gigacycle digital formatted microwave, easily!




Ed already have the beginnings of a 442.600+(127.3) repeater system at his residence.

The plans, now since he had to scale back, are to setup two sites, of which this the first one and as you see below, so he can supply a repeater stack in South Williamson (021195-010 [this location could change to 054059-010 Williamson]), via 021071-010, where it is needed by the four wheeling Amateur Radio operators enjoying themselves!

Second site will be closeer by and is about 1.7 miles from this one. It's ID is 021071-010 - Sugauloaf Branch.

Plans for later P25 and DMR, as well maybe a 928 Mcs repeater. Their frequencies will be added later as their indivadual site pages are created.




At this time there are three locations planned/operational.
Mouse over the Site ID Numbers to be able to select that site!

The below listing is dynamic as more sites are to be added or changed!
The below table will be located on each of the individual Site Pages!

In Amateur Radio, being dynamic and go with a changing
environment is the key to great communications!

(If a simplex radio is linked to a particular repeater stack,
then the $ is used in polace of ±.)
In the next table, in the SUB # column, Some are clickable to take you to that Co-Ordination table series.

When you do choose to look at the tables, there are three colors in the data fields, other than headers.

They are :
White
:
These repater data rows are from the Repeayer Book Data.
Pink (Lite Maginta)
:
These repeaters data rows are from SERA Co-Ordination Frequency Search Data.
Red
:
Any repeater row with this color is a posible Co-Ordination but, it may have a Co-Ordination issue and may not be Co-Ordinated. Thus, this frequence may change or not be there.
Green
:
This repeater is Co-Ordinated. With Black fonts, it has been Co-Ordinated but not operational.

If Dark Green fonts, then it is Co-Ordinated and not yet operational.
Lite Blue
:
This repeater is the target frequency.

Notes
:
(1) This site is where KB8QEU can test different repeaters, radios and equipment out. Being the valley at Lancer bottom, RF does not travel far.

(2) This is a specific engineering project.
