Seattle vhf repeater

For indoor antennas, you should have one antenna per TV, however sometimes you can split a strong signal effectively between two TVs. Outdoor antennas typically can support anywhere from TVs depending on the antenna model and wiring of your home.

Do I need to cancel Cable TV before trying an antenna? No, and in fact we would suggest against it. Buy an antenna that has a free return policy so that you can return if your home is not receptive to over-the-air signals.

Every home is different, so it may take some work to get good signal. Why all the distinct types of antennas? The distance between your home and the broadcast channels matter.

The amateur repeater landscape is currently undergoing a significant change and it has been happening for the last 10 years.

Doug Kingston was unanimously re-elected to the position of President and Quentin Cauldron and Allison Dalton were unanimously elected to Board Slots 2 and 4, respectively.

At the board meeting following the Annual Meeting, Quentin was appointed Secretary and Allison was appointed Treasurer. They both did a great job and have offered to help the new officers get up to speed. This is impacting lots of repeater with dual connectivity, and there does not appear to be an amicable solution. Practically, this will have virtually no impact on our users as virtually all our internet connectivity is via Allstar and Echolink, both of which are unaffected. Email Address.

I am looking for a park to operate park-portable HF close to downtown Seattle. Any suggestions? N0FN , Mar 27, In a new area I usually set the vfo scan limits to the more used FM portion of the band and see what I come across.

Here in Seattle I would most likely be on Downtown is probably not the best place to operate from a park. Too many tall buildings, noise of all kinds, and hills. Last edited: Mar 28, Seattle - Metro.
