I gotta say we are repeater plentiful in this region. In an actual EMCOMM event, the entire ETECS network is online among other personal/private repeaters that are available for use. I also second the fact that one side of the split is online when programmed into a radio correctly.?
Honestly the gross incompetence of the tower company may get them in trouble at this point. I doubt the FAA will be taking it lightly that the tower has been without beacons/lighting for this long.?
