I had heard this, but I was advised that the Fleetlink stuff was
still in place? We have a customer in Te Akau that needs to used a
phased array yagi setup just to get Fleetlink coverage to their base
and guess which site it's pointing at :) Haven't heard of any
complaints from them (which may not mean much, I'm just the boy :P)<br>
<br>
I haven't been up to this repeater site myself, but I understood
there'd be a bit of a walk to get to the shed unless you had keys to
some gates.<br>
<br>
Also could you e-mail me offlist which mail list they mention? I
work in the industry so maybe a good way to find out about things to
look out for. Every now and then we get told of thefts of equipment
through Tait. I know which repeater was apparently taken, so it
should be pretty obvious to someone who tries to reprogram it that
it shouldn't be in the third-parties hands. <br>
<br>
