Our Repeaters: N7ACB/R  147.18 +600 PL100

N7ACB/R Known as the Baldy Machine is located on top of Baldy at the commercial radio site at 9200 Feet. It covers the Wood River Valley and as far away as Twin Falls and Burley. It is an open repeater available to all visiting hams.  Please identify when you use it and follow accepted ham radio practices,  The repeater has a CTCSS of 100 Hz and is linked to the world via Echolink.  Look for AF7I-L on the Echolink WEB site to get on via computer. The auto-patch is now operational. Use 1*1 to bring it up and key ih the LOCAL phone number immediately, don't wait to hear the dial tone or it will probably time out.   After completing the call key in 1*0 to drop the patch.  The voice ID will tell you when it disconnects.

AE6DX/R  Known as the Sawtooth Machine is now operational and serves the Sawtooth Valley  from Phantom Hill  (Milepost 140) on the south side of the summit to somewhat west of Stanley.  It is in the early stages and we don't have the permanent antenna nor the link system operational as of this date but stayed tuned.  It did work perfectly for the Sawtooth Relay race on June 14th which was it's first real test.  Feel free to use it often and Please report back any information on it's coverage especially along the trail system using HT's.  We don't have a handle on the road coverage area yet so we appreciate all reports.  Chuck Robettson KX7ID sent in the WEB site for the coverage area based on theory and radiation patterns. http://www.idahoares.org/images/Galena_2.pdf
