The problem where we were hearing public service radio traffic on the
147.030 repeater has been resolved. A local ham found he had inadvertently
created the problem with a console he uses for his ham radio and work radio.
He realized the problem Monday evening and took care of it and apologized
for causing the issue.

In the process of looking into possible causes of the problem, WB9EWM did
make  a couple of trips to the 147.030 repeater site and while John was
checking the performance of the 147.030 hardware, John set the 147.030
repeater to analog FM only, it was previously set to auto mode detect. The
443.900 repeater is the place to do C4FM digital and that repeater is still
set for auto mode detect and will work with both analog and digital signals.

A big thank you to WB9EWM for spending several hours trying to find the
problem.

A more in depth report will be presented a the November club meeting.
