2022 Repeater Report from the State Fair...
   It was a cool day in Pueblo, 31 August 2022, +94F but cloudy and rain coming.
Cherry Lemonade is still $6.
   i was able to make Walkie Talkie range checks with guys on 146.97 &  448.45 with my little Baofeng (UV-5R) and its 5 inch rubber duck ---- Just like last year--- from inside the Creative Arts (Quilt HQ's) building, and the 4H building (Both have wooden roofs).
   97 was 3 to 6 dB weaker (by ear) than 448.45 but that is probably the result of the short rubber duck i was using.  448.45 was just full quieting most everywhere.
   What great coverage, in Pueblo !
Good job PPFMA guys.
