FCCA North Repeater?

When is the date that they will have that new tower at Polaris set up? Since we've updated our forums, you can't see past topics. I think it was November? Someone refresh my memory.

Thanks!

I believe that was correct from what I remember.

I was up there a couple of days ago, power is up on the tower and several antenna's and microwave antenna's were on the tower. Is it up and testing yet??? If it was I would say its not passing yet.

The sooner its up and running the better

I live less than a mile from the new tower and I do not think it is working becuase my reception has not approved at all.

nor has mine Improved

I also live within a mile(ish) of the new tower.

Yeah same. Mine hasn't improved any. I live less than a mile away, and I can't wait till they activate since when I'm walking the dog and wearing a big think coat, I don't have to worry about getting the antenna caught on the coat since I'm using the little stubby antenna I've always gotten crappy reception whenever I'm not upstairs in my house. I think the closest repeater besides this new one is at Morse and Cherry Bottom Road intersection.

Thanks Guys!

Where is the new tower at Polaris going to be located? A road or intersection would help me. This will no doubt give me better reception when I am at work in Lewis Center.
COSTCO coming to Polaris too. Saw that in the paper.

Sorry, to go off topic.

The tower is already up. It's behind CFD Station 33 on Lazelle Rd.

Late October/early November is the probable date, but there isn't a fixed schedule.
