Matt Removed 53.150 W0YC/R off of St. Paul Campus on June 6, 2021 and used the feedline for 443.000/147.750 receiver site.

[x] Order or build a Henry or similar amplifier for 6M.
[x] Check the ID to make sure it's right
[x] Check the VHF receiver for issues
[x] Clean the cabinet, circuit boards
[x] Remove old failed power supply and replace.

Checked out 53.15, and found a failed receiver. Since this equipment is crystal, disposed of equipment and ordered a replacement 50 Watt Motorola CDM radio from eBay. Received, at Lion's house for programming now.

I have retrieved the Motorola CDM 1550 radio from K1LEO and need to get time to program it up and return it to the air.

Perhaps from Matt's home station for starters, then a better site elsewhere?

New Motorola CDM 1550 radio at Matt's garage now.

[ ] Wire up CDM 1550 to RLC-210 controller
[ ] Locate a UHF remote base radio for RLC-210 Controller.
[ ] Wire up UHF remote base radio to RLC-210
[ ] Program RLC-210 controller to ID on 53.15, no ID on UHF. No hang time on UHF, unique courtesy tone on 53.15. NASA beep?
