Sunday we had a very successful tower climb, The 442.750 W6DXW Repeater had very poor performance, due to having water in the 7/8. The WB6ECE 441.3 repeater had a few discrepancies in the feed line as well, Both runs of coax have been swapped, increasing the performance of both repeaters significantly. 
I would like to thank our tower climbers Marcel Stieber AI6MS and Kenneth Finnegan Finnegan W6KWF for their continued hard work on our repeaters antenna system. We would not be ‘In the air everywhere’ with out these guys climbing the towers, doing a clean and professional job installing and maintaining our antenna systems. 
I would also like to thank our ground crew, Dave N0YES, Sione Ragle KE6STH, Zac K6ZWA, Nick K6CQX, Mike W6WLS, Matthew Kaufman KE6SQG, for volunteering their time, energy and expertise. With out everyone’s support as a community, SVRG would just be static in the air.
