C4FM - System Fusion coming to the 146.955 Repeater, Summer 2024

BARC will install a DR-2X System Fusion repeater at the Dennis 146.955 site.  This will allow users more options and modes of operation. 

You may recall BARC tried this before with a DR-1X and ran into ishues with interfacing our required controller.  Yaesu made hardware and software changes to the DR-2X that we anticipate will allow for a more unified system integration.

Honda EU2000i Conversion to Propane (only)

Submitted by admin on Tue, 2024-02-27 22:44

About one year into owning my EU2000, it started experiencing carburetor problems due to the ethanol fuel and junk clogging the EXTREMELY small passages in the carberator. 

This is a dedicated Propane unit (will NOT run on gasoline).  All original Gasoline parts were removed.
