[K3PZN-List] 6 Meter Repeater

[n3vop at juno.com]

Larry, I just got your note (I don't check my Juno daily) and tried the
repeater again.

IT"S BACK...

I was able to get in with just 5w as I had a few months ago. Also my
friend Bern in VA using a just a mobile antenna in his window (16th
floor) was able to also get in with no problems. 

Thanks Larry & hope to see ALL that have 6M on the net this Wednesday....
