WRWR489 Posted April 9, 2023 Report Posted April 9, 2023 Jerry rigged my antenna until the mast gets here and hit the Pickens repeater with now problem. Had a nice conversation and had good reception reports. We tried the Ceaser's Head repeater I could hear them but they could not hear me, to be expected since the antenna is blocked by the house to the north, Great sound good people and I think I will like this! Thanks for all the advice, it seems to have worked. WRTT642 and WRUU653 2 Quote
