Post date: Sep 13, 2010 5:14:26 PM

This past weekend the CCECPSCO installed a D-Star repeater and gateway at Stutsmanville, MI about 5 miles NW of Harbor Springs in the Northern

Lower Peninsula. This repeater replaces the KO8P FM analog repeater,

which was a low-power wide-area repeater covering much of Northern Lower

and Eastern Upper Michigan. The high-power wide-area N8DNX FM analog

repeater at the same site will remain.

The new D-Star repeater carries the W8CCE call, which is the club call

for the CCECPSCO, and operates on 443.375 MHz, standard +5 MHz offset.

("CCE" stands for "Charlevoix, Cheboygan, Emmet" counties).
