The K3HTK repeater has been on the air now for about 3 years! Hard to believe how time flies…. Now there has been a 440 side of this repeater established with the help of Bill (NF9K) and his generous donation of a Kenwood TKR-820 repeater!! See the information below… The 440 side of this repeater has been officially coordinated.
The 900 Mhz Repeater is located in Noblesville, IN. A very special thank you to Bill (K9YDO) for all of his help and time he spent helping me get this thing on the air. I learned a lot from Bill on this project and could not have done it without him lending a hand. I would also like to thank Chris (N9VHL) for the donation he made to this project by donating an MSF5000 150 watt PA setup for this repeater. That was definitely very generous and a huge help as well!
Given the system is low profile due to the lack of height on my tower, I am interested in anyone who may have access to or know someone who might be able to lend a hand getting this repeater to a tower site where I could also maintain an Internet connection for the EchoIRLP node. I know that is a tall order, but you never know….. Feel free to contact me at: k3htk@indyham.com
