Interesting and odd.? I just heard the repeater ID and it was back to normal strength.? It was barely breaking my squelch the last couple of hours.
I hate intermittent problems.
I probably will still go down there tomorrow to check things out, if anyone wants to tag along.

FYI, the repeater is very weak here.? Unknown as to what is the problem, but likely an antenna issue.? It was put up there 9 years ago this month.? But possibly not other issue with the machine.
I will try to get down to the site tomorrow and take a look.
We do have a new antenna, but obviously finding a climber at a reasonable cost would be necessary.? Also, our antenna support was thrown together, DX Engineering just came out with some new hardware for tower side mounted antennas.
Not knowing what shape things are in I probably will try to shut it down remotely.? If not, maybe when I'm there.
