Update: PL Output has been restored.

Good Morning,

A configuration change inadvertently disabled the subaudible "PL" or "CTCSS" tone from being transmitted by the 146.94 repeater. Currently, the 94 is not transmitting the 103.5 Output tone. (input tone still configured).

This would only impact you if you have radios configured with a "tone squelch" feature enabled. If you have a tone squelch on the your radio's receiver, this would cause you not to hear the repeater, as your radio has been configured to not open the squelch unless it hears the tone you're expecting.

We'll let you know when the PL output on the repeater has been re-configured. Thanks for your patience, and in the event of SKYWARN activation, monitor the backup channel 146.88 -0.6 PL 88.5
