Of interest to MJR Hams:
Yesterday, we finished the installation of a 2 meter repeater at 7,900 ft above Lucerne Valley.
Frequency: 145.180 MHz (minus 600 for the offset)
PL tone: 123.0 Hz
It is solar powered charging two 12v deep cycle batteries.
We suspect this will be a wide area repeater. Covering from Ridgecrest to the north and most of the Mojave desert. One of the guys talked to a buddy in San Pedro on a hill there. Please help us determine the coverage area. There will most likely be one of the local hams listening. I'm also trying to listen as much as I can also.
This has been coordinated by TASMA. That's the organization that coordinates the repeater frequencies in Southern California. There's a repeater in Pasadena on the same frequency but a different PL tone. So far we have not bothered them.
