Using a power meter, they adjusted the repeater transmitter to produce full power. While at the site, they checked the antenna feedline which looked ok. But the antenna was leaning down toward Unicoi about 20 degrees. They climbed the tower, straightened the antenna, and secured it. Hopefully, it will stay that way for awhile.
Reports are that the repeater seems a bit easier to access from the north now.
After introductions of all members and visitors, announcements were made. The Saturday breakfast informal meeting is still going strong. We meet at Perkins Steak House in Johnson City around 8 AM on Saturdays and always have a nice turnout. Everyone is welcome. If you haven't attended, consider joining the group.
