This is the Building that will hold the complete repeater and remote base system at the new site. Lenny's and Mike's cars are in front.

The new mounting location for the Repeater, Remote Base, and APRS Digi.

Lenny is measuring the repeater cabinet mounting holes so he can get the right ones marked on the rack.

The Repeater, Astron power supply and GE power supply are mounted.

Almost Done!

The top black box is the sheriff's backup duplexer for the backup repeater (sliver box below). The next open space will be for the controllers. Below that, in the large box, is the 147.00 repeater. Below that is the Astron 50 amp power suply. The next space will be used to house the remote base and APRS Digi. At the bottom is the spare 35 amp GE power supply.

Lenny going for his HT.

Here is Lenny getting ready to adjust the completed installation to make every thing perfect. Sitting on the Table is Lenny's Pride and Joy - A VERY expensive do everying piece of test equiptment.

Project Completed!

This is the finished product, tuned up and working GREAT.

Below the Sheriff's backup repeater is the new controller (Top) purchased by the county. Below that is the old controller that will be used for a backup if something goes wrong. Below the Astron power supply is the shelf holding the remote base (Left) and the APRS Digipeater (Right).

Tower

This is the tower the antennas are mounted on. The bottom antenna is the Remote base at 60 feet - a dual-band fiberglass antenna. The next one up is the APRS Digi mounted at 100 feet - it's a commercial 4 bay. The next one is the repeater antenna at 260 feet - also a commercial 4 bay. The top 2 antennas are the Sherriff's. Note that the 4 bay type antennas seem to be much less prone to lighting strikes and damage than the fiberglass type.
