                 W1MBT/R Repeater
(446.775 MHz, - offset, PL77, repeater IDs as W1MBT/R
PL77)


Hi again,

Finally, finally, finally.  Yes, the repeater is
finally up...  Many 
thanks to John KE1IH and Greg N1ZXL for getting the
tower and antenna up 
in one big push!
The antenna is a Comet GP6 with the base of the
antenna at 36 feet.   I 
have 25 watts at the antenna so with the gain I should
have about 100 
watts ERP.  Now if I had any height things would be
great. But, for now 
I think coverage will still be limited to the north
and north east.  I 
will spend some time on Sunday driving around mapping
out the coverage.

Well, in any case, give it a try when in/around the
Westfield area and 
let me know what you think.

Thank you John and Greg!

73,
Marc
