At the June 21st, 2023 RARC meeting, it was agreed to move the net to the 145.39 repeater FM (-0.6 MHz D047). The first net will be July 20th, 6:30 pm. There will be a station monitoring the 444.475 repeater to direct other stations to the 145.39. The VHF repeater is no longer connected to WiresX and the 145.39 has better coverage area and sound. Both repeaters remain System Fusion enabled.
