Ralph and Eric met with Phil at the Centennial arena this morning. We reviewed the installation of the new VHF/UHF antenna on the roof of the arena and the operating position for our ESS communications. Phil told us that they will be bringing in a desk with a lockable cabinet for storing the radio. We now need to arrange for a time to perform some path tests to ensure the antenna meets our needs.
Phil also mentioned that we will be able to use the arena facilities for our monthly meetings if we are interested in that. He went on to say that they have ordered the repeater card for us and that we should be seeing it mid to late February. Once the card is in hand we will be able to upgrade the repeater and get it functioning much better.
