Ouch. I just remembered that the 2m repeater was doing very strange things a couple days ago so that would have been the same thing I guess.

Looking at the snail trails tonight 6RLM-3 has filled in nicely for 6RTH-3.

It's good but it'll be nice to get Tic Hill back. For starters, RLM can't hear KSB and therefore neither can IVK6ZMS wrote:Looking at the snail trails tonight 6RLM-3 has filled in nicely for 6RTH-3.

Probably. It was mid afternoon from a poor location. The Hepburn looks hot over this week.

I think you will find this is fairly common for KSB-3. It has VERY good coverage from it's loaction both north and south and I have noticed a number of my packets in / around the City Block route via KSB-3.
Definately a 'keeper' location!
