Committees

VE   K6PJ will give a test on November 8. Anyone is welcome.  He needs VE help.  He will offer a new class in January.

ERA   N7FLT reports that the 146.82 repeater is connected to the 146.88 repeater. The repeater in West Yellowstone will be relocated. The positive offset repeater for 146.88 is still off the air because it does not have an identification.
