 Tall-Tower Repeater Test a SUCCESS

M.A.R.C. in ActionBright and early this morning, a few dedicated hams from around the area exercised the 147.18 while WSFA had their analog television transmitter powered off. The result, I'm happy to report, was no noise at all. The moment Channel 12 analog went off the air, the buzz disappeared. Thanks to all that helped!
73,
Scott, W4SPA
