Petersburg repeater is restored

New network hardware is in place and the repeater is back operating normally. Thanks for your patience and for those who checked in regarding their interest in this site. If you are in the area, we encourage you to check it out as it has a significant footprint that has improved from the initial installation. The repeater can be utilized from the north near I-95 and Willis Road and towards Jarratt south of Petersburg. West it covers towards the Dinwiddie/Nottoway line and it also provides coverage along 460 East towards Waverly. If you are traveling to the beach that way be sure to check it out.

Thanks to the Alexandria Radio Club

We are pleased to accept support for the DMRVA network from the Alexandria Radio Club for the second year in a row. The club operates the Alexandria repeater which is on the network. This gracious support helps offset the personal costs of network operation, which include website hosting, c-bridge operational costs as well as cellular internet at other repeater sites. It was great to network with users of the system and learn about their experience while visiting the Frostfest. Please visit their website at the link above.
