The time has finally come to start uploading material to this website!

So, if you happen to have stumbled apon these pages this first week of June (2007) I ask that you be patient as updating is an ongoing process. 

I'm not sure whether I'll complete the D-Star updating first and then proceed to moving and updating the repeaters pages, or if I'll intermix the two.

By mid month I expect to have everything moved over here and the postings to be roughly complete (save the automotive pages-- but that's another story).

Thanks for visiting-- and thanks for your patience as I upload documentation...

FYI--- the 145.36 Glen Arbor wI0OK__C DStar digital voice repeater is on the air and functional. 

Initial tests show the range to be reasonably good, though it appears that there might be a bit more directivity favoring the south than the six meter repeater has (using the same antenna).   For what it is, where it is, I'm very pleased so far.  Improvements surely will come.
