Today (March 24th) Conny N5HC and Gary W5BI drove up to Pajarito Peak and installed the Radio Thin Client Module (RTCM) repeater interface. This module enables direct network connection to the main server computer at Rainbow via the county LAN. It also eliminates the need for a computer at the site, greatly enhancing the reliability of the node.
[Special thanks to Ronney KB0PMY for scouting the road conditions up to the site on Friday.]
The Pajarito 443.100 repeater will be permanently linked to the other SCARES repeaters at Rainbow and La Madera.
With the return of Pajarito Peak to the SCARES repeater system, we will have superb radio coverage throughout the county.
Dedicated to providing emergency communications and related services and activities in support of Rio Rancho and other municipalities, Sandoval County, State of New Mexico, the Federal Government and the public at large as has been the custom since 1991.
