Virginia's Amateur DMR Linked Repeater Network
We expect to add the N4POW UHF DMR repeater in Powhatan to the system the weekend of April 6th. It will have the standard TG lineup with TG 27500 (Local) linked full-time to RVA Local (shared with W4RAT in Midlothian and WA4FC in Petersburg.) Thanks to the Powhatan Area Radio Club for joining us.
Work is scheduled to be performed this weekend on the antenna system of the Alexandria repeater. A new duplexer will be installed, which should significantly improve receive coverage. Check back soon for more information.
The Roanoke W5CUI repeater has been restored. Thank you for your patience.
The evening of January 3rd to early morning of January 4th one of our servers will be physically moved. You may experience a disruption of network service during this time period (Approx. 11pm – 5am) but repeaters should remain available for local usage.
Update: Functionality appears to be restored. We will post further updates if warranted.
One of our hosting providers is experiencing an unplanned downtime. They are in the process of troubleshooting the issue with on-site staff. We will post a notification when more information becomes available.
Connectivity to the Linden DMR Repeater has been restored.
Have a great Memorial Day.
The Linden DMR Repeater is operating stand-alone due to an equipment failure. We hope to restore connectivity as soon as possible.
Welcome to the Alexandria Radio Club… The 442.4125 repeater in Alexandria is now on the air. The standard talkgroup lineup applies.
Please send along coverage reports.
We will be performing system maintenance today, November 8. You may experience intermittent problems using the Echotest/Parrot TG during this time.
Thank you for your understanding.
UPDATE: Maintenance completed.
Operators supporting the Special Olympics in the Richmond area will be using Timeslot 1 on the Richmond and Petersburg repeaters during the days of June 8 – 10th. All traffic on Richmond Local (TG 27500, TS1) will be managed by Special Olympics Net Control during this time.
Accordingly, all Talkgroups on Timeslot 1 will be unavailable for general amateur use during the duration of the Special Olympics nets. Please QRX but feel free to use VA Statewide (3151) and PRN (2) on Timeslot 2 as per usual.
Again, this only affects the Richmond and Petersburg machines. All other machines on the DMRVA network will be unaffected.
Thank you for your understanding during this important event.
