Locked W?VFW UHF repeater on K-LINK

 

There has been some talk that we are not connected to K-link on the UHF side. Actually we are.
Here is the website to watch the K-LINK network in real time..

At the time I copied this link , KLINK was showing only 4 active repeaters..9 total.

Please note McPherson, Hillsboro, Salina,? El Dorado, and Newton are no longer part of the network. Hence some of the confusion as some of us can activate those repeaters and listen to ours.

Rest assured those all powerful W?VFW elected royality will be working long into the night to assure the best possible outcomes for the group.

This is inaccurate.?

Only Newton was removed from K-Link. McPherson, Salina and El Dorado continue to be affiliated and connected to K-Link.

Not all K-Link repeaters are connected via VoIP. There are 28 repeaters associated with K-Link, 2 of which are down for maintenance. Repeaterbook.com is the authoritative listing for all K-Link repeaters. This can also be viewed on the K-Link website:?

If you have any further questions regarding K-Link, please direct them to me.

Jordan-

I was relying on the node information I found on the K-Link web site. at:

plus others? who stated they could no longer access El Dorado, McPHerson or Hillsboro..? I am unaware of status other than the "live" representation I found at that link above.
Lately I have been the club "go to man" regarding? repeater issues. Our VHF is off the air because of intermittent Spurious emissions and self oscillation. As you know VERTEX was bought by Motorola. Motorola does not stock and spares at all for any Vertex equipment. A plan is in place to improve out situation but requires more funding.

This past year I lost my VHF/UHF station twice. Once to lightening . Then lost my VHF/UHF antenna in that ice storm just over a month ago. I replaced it with a GP9 on Superbowl Sunday as we finally had a break in the weather. I really have not rechecked my ability to hear distant repeaters as before. I was relying on others who called me and said our repeater was not connected, ALLSTAR and KLINK indicated it was.

So thank you very much for correcting me.? Hope to see you at the Febraury 29th event.

*Not. All. K-Link. Repeaters. Are. Connected. Via. AllStar.

*The majority of K-Link repeaters are connected via UHF RF link paths, which are not reflected on the All-star console.? Please consult the "Repeater Frequencies" as a reference.

*Motorola parts can still be obtained.
