REPEATER STATUS

Raglan Repeater on 145.675 MHz - 20 February 2010
The 145.675 MHz Raglan repeater in now off air permanently. This has been brought about by the construction of wind power generators around the site. It is hope to have the new Icom FR5000 repeater operational at Te Uku, on 145.675 MHz, by the end of March, 2010.

IRLP Node on 695 - 25 September 2009
The Linking Matrix has been re-installed and the node appears to be working normally. The fault that was causing the intermittent loss of audio was found and has been repaired.

IRLP Node on 695 - 3 September 2009
The IRLP Node on 695 is faulty again. It would appear that the Linking Matrix problem has returned. It will therefore be "Offline" until further notice.

IRLP Node on 695 - 21 August 2009
The Linking Matrix has been installed and the IRLP node appears to be working normally.

Kaimai National System Node - 18 August 2009
The Kaimai National System node has been repaired and is now back in operation.

Rukuhia National System Node - 14 August 2009
The node has been repaired and is now back in operation.

IRLP Node on 695 - 11 August 2009
The IRLP node has been disabled again, as the Linking Matrix shelf has been brought down from Te Aroha for repair. Will be operational again once the fault is found and the Kordia technicians are able to return it to Te Aroha.

Rukuhia National System Node - 9 August 2009
The 9975 transmitter is hanging on intermittently at the moment. This problem is being investigated and will be fixed before the Kaimai node is back on air.

Kaimai National System Node - 8 August 2009
The Kaimai node was removed this afternoon and taken to Hamilton for repair. Due to the intermitent nature of the fault, it is possible the node could be down for some time. However, we will be endeavouring to have it back on air as soon as possible.

IRLP Node on 695 - 29 July 2009
The IRLP node has been disabled due to no audio getting from the UHF receiver through to the 695 transmitter. This is a re-occurance of the same problem from a few months ago. We are investigating the the problem. 695 is otherwise functioning normally. 1 Aug 2009 - Back in operation - temporary repair made.
