>> The Pikes Peak FM Association repeaters (KB0SRJ) are back on the air with
>> their original antenna configuration.  Mike Stansberry K0TER, Al Glock
>> KC0PRM and Don Johnson K0DRJ together over the past several days took
>> several trips up to the antenna site to reposition the antenna base and 
>> get
>> the antennas back on their masts in pretty much their original
>> configuration.  Mike performed a few radio tests, including one with the
>> National Weather Service in Pueblo and reports a full quieting signal at 
>> the
>> repeater.  So it sounds like we're back in to 100% again.

>> The repeaters were taken off the air at the repeater site on August 9,

>> year, 1 month and 10 days to get things back to normal.

>> Thanks to the many folks involved in getting things down, then up and
>> ultimately back on the air to full capability!
