OPPS, Lightning, you made a mistake. The NWS is on Mt lukens on .55 
and on Santiago peak, .450 IIRC.  On the Mt lukens NWS' ID it states 
"located on Mt Lukens..". It was moved there almost a year ago, better 
coverage in into Oxnard/ Ventura.

Good idea on the RS NWS receiver, tho!

Ok, it's 10 miles away at a 20-25 degree angle.  It's still 50db
quieting on a 1 inch piece of wet kite string.

Bogner makes a nice 10 Dbd for 150 MHz used a lot by the Coast Guard. But it
is about 80 feet long and gets side mounted it is multi folded dipoles. Lord
knows how much that thing must cost. .

250W into a 10 dB stick for VHF? I'd like one of those antennas for
2-Meters. Who makes it?

Ok, it's 10 miles away at a 20-25 degree angle.  It's still 50db

Although 162.450 doesn't ID with a location anymore, it used to announce 
that it was on Pleasants Peak, between Sierra & Santiago Peak.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: A heads-up to repeater owners

2005-01-14 Thread Scott Zimmerman

It just figures. I don't read my e-mail for a few days and there is a
topic I can really offer some input about... OH Well, better late than never
I guess.

I have one of these receivers up at a local repeater and it works
wonderfully. I will try to get to the site today (Friday) and take some
pictures so I can build a page for the RB site that describes the interface
I made. It really works nice. I mounted a BNC on the back for an external
antenna connection and have a DB-9 mounted in the case for the connections
to the controller.

Please stand by..
