<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">There seemed to be quite a bit
or noise last night during the net on the 2m Bellville repeater. When no
one was transmitting, it looked like there were signals coming in on my rig's
meter. As of right now (9:19am Thursday) it seems pretty quiet, I just see
a little bit of noise - nothing like it was last night.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

that on all other repeaters that I listen to, when there is no one using
the repeater the noise level is zero, but if you listen to the 145.410 it has a

<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>We had six checkins to the net tonight:<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>K5FRT - Jack<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>KG5ITZ - Darryl<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>KC5LSP - Dave (on 70cm)<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>WB5RFQ - Gil<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>K1PEC - Ron (on 2m and 70cm)<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>W5RAC - Ray<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Was there anyone else trying to check in that we didn't
hear? All in all, things seemed to work better than last week.
<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Jack, it seemed like your contact was intermittent, but when
I heard you, you were loud and clear. Ray, I could copy you, just barely -
maybe an antenna issue? Let me know if either of you want to try a contact
sometime and we can do some more testing.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Ron and I did a test after the net, and we didn't have any
problem communicating on VHF. Transmitting on UHF (which I did not use
during the net), my signal was intermittent. Looks like I need to get my
antenna a bit higher for UHF to get into the Bellville repeater (about 20
miles), it is surrounded by trees.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Thanks to everyone who checked in tonight!<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
