| VE1PAR - Parrsboro Repeater Antenna Damage - Nov. '07 |
| Lorne, VE1BXK, and Elaine drove up to the VE1PAR repeater site on Sunday, November 18th, 2007 to investigate the reason why the repeater was not working properly. A picture is worth a thousand words so here are the photos below sent to me by Lorne. They explain the problem... AND the solution! |

| Lorne, before going home, closes the gate to keep the antennas from wandering off! |
| UPDATE: Brad, VE1ZX, was able to make it up to the repeater site on 21st November 2007 and he installed a Sinclair 210 C2*2 (Freq Range: 138 to 174) two metre antenna array. Brad sent this photo to me so I thought club members would like to see it and know that VE1PAR is back on the air! |
