Another update on the Columbus 146.640 repeater. After the lightening strike and after the installation of a new antenna, the repeater controller experienced symptoms of staying active and not dropping correctly after a transmission ended. After trying various fixes, the club decided to replace the old controller. Thanks to club member WD0AAH for finding a new Yaesu controller that the club purchased.

This new controller has been installed and the 146.640 repeater is receiving positive reports from members using it around the county .
