Evening, all!
Well, my inbox has been a wasteland and it’s been really awfully warm around here, not a breath of wind. Still, there’s a repeater status report, albeit not much different from last week.
Have a good one! 🙂

Evening all!
Sorry, no pictures in the report tonight but a good report and plenty of donations. I was a little over-enthusiastic what with the photo and jumped the gun on the report of the work done up on Hawequas. So, with my deepest apologies to Jan and Paul, an update is included.
Enjoy! 🙂
