I’ve recently installed a pre-amp on the 442.850+ repeater. While I’m still limited in height, the addition of the pre-amp has made a measurable difference in the receive capabilities. I’m planning to do some testing to figured out exactly what the impact was to the system. So if you’re on the N/W side, tune it up and drop your call. As a reminder, this repeater is linked via Echolink to the 70cm and 33cm repeaters of K3HTK in Noblesville.
