Locked REPEATER status change.

 

As of 11:30am Local 10/16 I disconnected Blind Hams because VE3RWJ commented on a "long Static Crash" and I inquired . He and another commented they were putting up with it on Blind Hams for 3 days.. We've had high winds for 3 days.. Right now I have ZERO wind in Mulvane. and the repeater is quiet..

Now it's quiet for the last 1/2 hour. I am also now monitoring Blind Hams on my HOTSPOT.. to make sure we were the one causing it as I polled connections and there were about 45 users connected.

We are now standing alone. If the sun has burned off the frost we will not know if It's us till tomorrow about 9am.. but it was making noise till 11:30 this morning.

We have PL on the repeater, so any carrier has to have the same PL in order to get into our machine.
Our transmitter transmits a DPL tone so it cannot mix and produce a PL tone for the receiver..

I may try to get up to the post at 3pm today.. to check connections on coax cables, etc.. Tomorrow-Wednesday I will be busy..
