That's great I'll have to program that in and see if I can hit it from Tinley Park. I just entered it into my hand scanner and heard some activity on it.
73, n9fun I sent this to the "band-appropriate" groups, but since we're all into building machines, whether they are on 900 or not, I figured I'd better send this here too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: N9WYS Sent: Tuesday, December 05, 2006 5:28 PM Subject: New 900 Repeater on the air! Well, I finally got a machine operating on my pair on 900 near Chicago - 927.52500 (-25 MHz) PL 151.4 It is currently ID-ing as K9ZOE, since that fine Ham and gentleman offered his working repeater as a fill-in until I completed construction of my own machine. If you are in the Joliet area, try us out. With 100W output and on top of the tallest building in Joliet, the coverage is pretty good! (I can work it with my GTX portable from 15 miles away.) Ok, sure, it's not on a 500' tower or a mountain, but it's the best us flatlanders can do around these parts! :-) 73 de Mark - N9WYS
