Jon is the owner of the VE3SNM repeater at it's new site in Balentrae, Ontario. Jon has chosen the GE UHF DELTA Radio as the building block for the repeater. Jon has a pair of these radios interfaced with the Link Communications RLC-2A Gold Series, currently configured as a repeater port with two linking ports. The third unused port will be utilized a little later on, watch for news on our news page for new developments as they happen. The link radio is a GE UHF TMX 1000, Jon has modified it to be frequency agile. The repeater is co-located on a commercial site in Balentrae, and is split coupled into two Sinclair SRL 310 C8's at 350 foot level on the tower. 1-5/8 inch corrugated transmission line carries the signal from the shelter to the antennas. The repeater is multi-coupled into the antenna with Sinclair 3037 C Series multi-couplers. The repeater has recently been moved from it's original home near Finch and 404 highway, in North Scarborough. Dimitri Vekris, VA3CY, as a member of the Skymark board and SNM's liaison with Skymark was instrumental in providing SNM's location for the past 14 years along with being the current callsign trustee. SNM is 350 feet AGL, and 1347 feet RC-AMSL |
