University MTN VHF Repeater Removed

[K7MT]

Howdy gang,

Tom Gasta (WR7HLN) has taken the VHF repeater out of University Mountain above Missoula, Mt. The existing UHF repeater will remain on line.

A company wants to re-establish a Microwave Link from Spokane, Wa. to Helena, Mt. using the old existing microwave paths (Lookout, Superior, University Mtn, Bearmouth, Gold Creek, Mac Donald Pass) Room was needed at the University Mtn to accommodate the Microwave equipment. All the other sites are good to go.

Is the web site for all of Tom's sites that have Amateur Radio. It is a very nice UHF system linked from Lookout pass Mt/ID, University Mtn Missoula, Mac Pass Helena, Boulder, Mt., Toston, Mt., and Badger Pass Dillon, Mt. It is also linked via echo link to Albuquerque, Nm.

Just a little information update in case you use the VHF repeater on University Mountain near Missoula, Mt.
