Ralph,
Thanks.
Trevor and I are headed up to the site Thursday morning and hopefully will get W6CX-DV back on the air then.?
There was a light dusting of snow up there, with a bit of ice on the roads.? Not enough to prevent us from getting there, but right on the edge.? For a ham who was born and raised in North Iowa, it was a little nostalgic.?? But not too much.

The digital voice repeater is temporarily down.? Trevor and I went up to the site today to reconfigure the radios so if the UPS or generator were to have problems again and lose power, the DV radios will come up again properly when power is restored.
?
We did that and first tested losing power to the radios, then restoring it.? They both restarted properly.? We then did an RF test using D-Star, and it also worked, repeating properly.
?
We left the site, and while driving back, another ham used the DV repeater and the Dashboard shows it worked.? Sometime after that, the repeater stopped working.
?
We are working to schedule another trip and fix whatever is wrong.? Hopefully it will be something that can be fixed quickly.? I am sorry for this disruption in service on our MultiMode digital voice repeater.? I??????????? will post updates on these two groups.
