Yeah, twice in two days. I *think* the replacement batteries were installed recently? Might be teething.

I was picking up Mt William S9 while mobile this morning. Never even heard it before while mobile.

The Mt William repeater is feeling a lot better lately. Hopefully it won't be DX anymore :)

Nope, but that explains why I couldn't get onto it from the northern suburbs the other day!

edit: more helpfully, it looks like this group run it, is it worth contacting them if noone on here can help?

RNS has been down for a while but didn't know RNC was off. I'my pretty sure I heard it during the week.

(Changed the topic to read "and beacons")

VK6RCW has been back on air for a few days now. Anybody know what the new location is? It's a pretty weak signal here.

It was on test at Hillview scouts (where WARG meets)

Is that the VK6RUF ident I just heard on the VK6RMS repeater?
While on the subject of repeaters, I just got my WARG newsletter on Friday.. postmarked over a week ago. With a little luck, the parcel I'm waiting for now will go the correct address instead of Some Random Location Near-by™

is it just me or is vk6rnc down?
