The W4AVA repeater system consists of
four repeaters: two repeaters on two meters and two on 70 centimeters. 146.625 MHz repeater reception
is augmented by five satellite receivers. The receivers provide broad coverage of the national capital region. W4AVA repeaters are open repeaters and may be used by Amateur Radio operators who abide by the ARPSC Repeater Use Policy, subject to the discretion of the trustee. Please submit questions and/or suggestions concerning the W4AVA repeater system to the trustee at the e-mail address shown below. |
Status Key
Normal - Repeater/Remote and related systems appear to be operating within design parameters.
Evaluation - Report of possible equipment problem being evaluated. Service interruptions possible.
Service - Service interruptions possible due to maintenance and/or testing.
Off-line - Repeater/Remote off air.
Event - Public service event (priority use).
Notes
• Please report suspected repeater problems to the trustee.
• ARPSC devotes considerable time and resources to ensure that the W4AVA repeater system satisfies the highest technical standards and best practices. On several occasions, after receiving complaints of interference, ARPSC has conducted extensive evaluations of W4AVA repeater system equipment only to find that the complaining party's equipment was at fault and its troubleshooting procedures were grossly deficient. Therefore, ARPSC will consider investigating suspected inter-repeater interference issues only upon receiving from the trustee of the affected repeater(s): (1) a written, detailed report of the suspected interference; and (2) a recent (3 business days) written technical evaluation and assessment completed by a qualified professional RF engineer that includes a description of the tests and equipment employed in the assessment, and clearly demonstrating that (a) the affected repeater and all ancillary components satisfy FCC technical requirements and best practices; and (b) that the trustee of the affected repeater has employed all reasonably prudent means of mitigating interference.
