[PPRAANet] 2 meter net repeater PLEASE RESPOND

All,
The Cheyenne Mountain Repeater Group repeater on 147.345 is available for the PPRAA use. Shortly, that repeater will be connected to our repeaters in Salida on 145.295 and Wilkerson Pass on 147.360.

At last week’s meeting, I did mention to Mike about the possibility of using one of the wide-coverage repeaters of the PPFMA, the 146.970 or 448.450 (100Hz each). I don’t know how many more of our members could reach the wide area 146.970 versus the more local 147.345, but it might be worthy of consideration.
