The large HF antenna a cushcraft R7?

AG5HV has moved to Colorado Springs
Hello all,?
this is to notify you all that I have moved to Colorado Springs. I will miss talking to you all on the N5ERS. Y’all were my first repeater while starting from a 5W HT with a mag mount to a substantially better 50W all band. I spent many a morning and afternoon talking to you all oblong the way to my destination.?
I will always remember Jay W5GM and Joe N3JI telling me I need “another kilometer or kilowatt” when I got a dead spot. I actually now have about 1.8Km more altitude. Still working on the Kilowatt though. ?
hope to catch y’all on HF sometime perhaps.?

Hey ERSians,
It has been awhile since I posted. First, I want to thank and congratulate the team that lit up N5ERS for FD2021!! I just saw the score in this months ARRL journal. Great effort and awesome result!
AREDN update: All AREDN equipment has been shut down at the Grapevine site to conserve battery power. I don't think anybody was using it anyway. One of the 180deg rocket panels was dead and not powering up.
I need to do a climb to pull a few antennas down at some point before the ice hits. There are also several fried solar panels on top of the shelter that I need to yank as well.
Everything else seems to be pretty status quo.
I just saw this on the rene bates auction site. Do you need a ham radio man cave?

Yes! I will be bringing it to FD! I just used it today to get some SSTV from the ISS.?

Hey Jonathan, you still planning on bringing out that Arrow?? I've got some plans for a bit of experimenting that I would like to do.. FM Birds, SSB Birds and other assorted weather Birds of US and Russian flavors.. hehehe

I'm in, especially for sats!? Sincerely,

Having the right antenna for satellite is the only thing that kept us off the birds last year.. I think working those would be awesome.

Joe, N3JI, has floated the idea of doing something at the repeater
site again this year.

Hey all,?
any thoughts about Field day 2021 as N5ERS? I wanted to see
interest. Also I bought a vhf/uhf crossed yagi and it would be
nice to get a satellite this year.?

?Hey ERSians,
I visited the grapevine repeater site this afternoon to investigate the carrier squelch issue on the 4.85 machine.
I discovered that the logic line out of the repeater for PL detect has gone open. My temporary / permanent fix was to reprogram the repeater to exert pl detect on the COR line instead. I really don't see any legitimate reason to run open squelch. The last several weeks have proven that out.
850 should be really quiet now.. No more noise bursts or other crapola!

Re: Another One Bites the Dust
Well can’t say we didn’t see this coming. I was in store 1.5 years ago in California and they shelves looked as empty as Dallas locations. ? PC and electronic Hobbyists, which is why they originally existed, have been on the decline for the past decade or so. ? Maybe they were a laundering operation for South/Central America drug lords and Trump took a bite out of them and then covid hit with closed boarders…LOL ? ? ?

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I say good riddance. It was an awful
business model, and they lost a customer for life when I was trying to
replace a WD Red that had died in one of my storage arrays and they
would not price match Newegg because they claimed that Newegg's drive
was a model exclusive to them. Strangely enough, Microcenter had no
problem matching that very same day.
