The following Thursday, I went to the repeater site on my home commute from work to check on the repeater.  I found the power supply connect not making contact.  Not having any tools with me, I just pressed on the connector until the repeater came to life.  The problem appeared to be the power cable was placing stress on the connector and gravity was causing the disconnect.  My intention was to return at a later date with proper tools to fix the problem.
