Hi, Kevin:

Dan Van Fleet K8DVF was active with us using a tunnel.
Dan put a dish on his barn and I put a panel (Mikrotik SXTsq-5nd)
on DARA's tower up about 50 feet.
The RF path did not work.
The panel is still running: NC8Q-HuberHeights-Springfield
You are a little closer...maybe you can link with the panel node.
I'll check the path at Heywhatsthat.com.
Do you have the lat/long and elevation of the repeater antenna at the 
Masonic Home?

73, Chuck
