Folks:

Saratoga County has two towers at their Providence radio site.

Several years ago, they abandoned the older tower when they moved to the new tower and building leaving only the K2DLL systems. They are 147.240 MHz analog voice, four beacons for weak signal work, and a Flexnet system.

The old tower is about to be taken down and the power turned off to the building.

The four beacons are now QRT and there is no plan to put them at any Saratoga County communications site. Rusty, KE2PW, is looking for a site for the Flexnet system.

?

The 147.240 MHz repeater and UHF link radio are being moved to the new tower and building.

During this move, 24 might be off the air but the remainder of? the club’s repeaters, i.e. 147.00 MHz and 448.225 MHz on Spruce Mountain; 147.360 MHz on the Halfmoon water tank; 147.030 MHz on Fraker Mountain near Edinburg, and the WA2UMX UHF DStar repeater will be on the air.

?

After the move the coverage of 147.240 MHz repeater should be about the same and all K2DLL repeaters will now be in secure Saratoga County buildings with emergency backup power. ?
