Repeater Update
This information is provided by Alan Malan (KB7YSP)
The 2m repeater on 147.04 with a tone of 123 is now C4FM capable.
You can use your Yaesu fusion radio with the 04 repeater and / or use
your regular FM radio with the same repeater.
Give it a try and check out the capabilities.
Do some experimenting.
But above all, have some fun with it.
You will notice there is no courtesy tone, or hourly announcements.
Those will come later.
Just FYI:
Other news at the antelope island repeater site that the sheriffs
office let's us use.
The sheriff's office has installed new solar panels and a new generator.
There is still work going on with that project but it's looking good.
Thanks,

Yeasu Fusion Repeater Online
Our new Fusion Repeater which supports the ARES Frequency of 449.925 is now online. One critical change you all must make to use this repeater is to enable a 100 Hz PL Tone. It is linked to the 147.420 Simplex Frequency for the Thursday ARES Net.
