FORUM WILL BE MOVING

[Halfcrazy]

So I just found out the web guru is not backing up our forum and I can not stand the host (Lunar Pages) so I am going to be moving the server back to a hosted space I own so I can back it up 3 times a week. I have successfully rebuilt it twice and will probably go into maintenance mode one morning next week. I am leaning towards next Friday (10-16-15)

For the most part other then the down time needed to ftp down the files and restore them there should not be any noticable issue. The URL we are at now will simply be redirected and life should be good.

Thank you for your patience
Ryan

Radio Tower?

[Halfcrazy]

Yes 100ft of Rohn 25G that I took down and replaced with 100ft of Rohn 55G. Funny thing a 10ft section of Rohn 25G is not 10ft it is like 9ft 6in so the new tower is 6ft taller and the repeater antenna is on a 25ft mast now that is 18ft out of the tower so we gained about 20ft on the elevation

You should notice a difference.

I do, it takes me longer to climb to the top

what repeater is it ?

[Halfcrazy]

KB1UAS-R
224.84

That's one thing I don't have yet is a 220 rig, is there much activity in your area ?

Thanks, Bart

Not as much as 2 meters but we do have a pretty good group of us with 220

I'll have to see if I can pick it up on the scanner. I've been looking into an APRS system to monitor my solar at the camp on Kingsbury Pond, not to far from you.

We will be moving today at 12 noon EST, I will put the forum in maintenance mode during the move and work diligently to make the URL redirect.
