As mentioned in earlier post, we are working with Levy County Emergency Management to replace the 2-Meter Repeater (147.330 + w/123.0 CTCSS). We are also working on installing a new 70cm repeater at the same location. As before, we'll keep you posted.

The K4NCA 2 meter repeater has been on the air for a little over 1 week. Our performance expectations have been exceeded. We have HT coverage in about 90% of Levy County. We have HT coverage outside Levy County, to the North, Northeast, and East. We have typical mobile coverage in all of Levy County (except for some tower shadow in the SW quadrant). Mobile and Base coverage has been reported upwards of 85 miles from the tower site. We are currently working on a solution to the antenna orientation in hopes of clearing up the poor coverage to the SW. We are also working on replacing the repeater with a new Yaesu Fusion DR-1X repeater.  We'll keep you posted on the results.
