AH6LE Repeater and Remote Base System

The 146.920 repeater is back on the air from its new home atop Highland Butte (which is up above Beavercreek, Oregon) at the 1,500 level. Coverage seems to be great!

The 442.675 repeater/2 meter remote base system at new Ladd Hill site is now on the air! Coverage is quite good from Wilsonville south and east.

The links are working great and are left on pretty much full time. Of course this means not only are the 2 repeaters tied together but access to IRLP and EchoLink is now operational again as well!
