Beaverdam repeater is on the air

The Beaverdam repeater is on the air as of today on 444.6125 MHz (CC1).  A special thank you goes out to K2VIZ and KD4RJN for their support at this site and to N4MW for technical assistance.

This new system will enhance DMR coverage for many who travel I-95 between Richmond and F’burg as well as Route 1.  Other areas that will benefit include Hanover County, the town of Ashland, Caroline County, portions of Louisa County and other areas.

Due to the hardware configuration, this repeater will not show users RSSI on the last heard list.

The local TG is part of the Richmond Metro talkgroup (Richmond, Petersburg, Powhatan and portable repeater sites).  It otherwise carries the standard TG lineup that is listed on the talkgroup page.

We would appreciate reports on coverage and user experience.  Please contact the DMRVA team with information about this repeater.
