Repeater Site Search From the Sky

Property in Dundee

Moving in for a view of the roof....


Close up of the roof.
At our February meeting Jim N1WHF had an idea on where our next Repeater site may be located in Dundee, on the property shown above. The loopy curves you are seeing are actually some one's personal Rail Road! After reviewing the ariel photo we noticed a power sub-station (top right) adjacent to the property. Arc-Bzzz. In the not too distant past we have had line noise cause the Repeater receiver to go quite deaf if you recall. Imagine what a sub-station would do!

Jim also thought he saw antennas on Bok and thought they may be sympathetic to our cause. The "antennas" turned out to be a massive ground rod system.
