[TMRA] 53.110 Update

[Robert Hall]

The 53.110 (-) repeater is back on the air this evening.

The interesting thing is that the repeater, at the height it is at (antenna
at about 380'), started hearing the digital signal DX well before the rest
of us noticed that the 6 meter band was starting to open up with sporadic E
propagation on Friday evening.  I did get reports shortly afterwards from
Tony (N8WAC) that the 6m band had indeed opened and that he was starting to
hear the digital signal that the repeater was hearing.  (that is good
news)   :)

I'd like to thank Tony for his troubleshooting help and for his reports!
Everyone, please do let us know if you hear the repeater locking up like
that in the future again so that we can address it.  We do have plans to
activate the PL tone in the near future as well, which should alleviate
some interference like that.
