Today marks a noteworthy moment for the Salinas Valley Repeater Group, as we put to rest the 2 Meter, 440, 900 Mhz repeaters located at our soon to be former site in Pacific Grove. This site gave us the start 5 years ago that brought W6DXW to the Monterey Bay. As we have expanded to cover areas I certainly never considered and gained tower sites I could only dream of this site has become outdated and under utilized.
Effective this afternoon,
147.735, 440.450, 927.0375 are OFF AIR.
The frequencies and equipment from this site will bring forth new systems and locations in the future.
With our friends on the hill (WB6ECE RG) that provide the 2 key tower sites and the microwave backbone for covering the Monterey Bay, I am confident the discontinuation of this location will not hinder our coverage in the slightest and free up resources for our expansion in the future.
73 to PG.
