111112 Repeater Time Adjustments and Controller Firmware upgrade

Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Body: 

I was at both sites yesterday and updated the controller firmware, and changed the times to UTC.
I also discovered that the controller programming software had a setting to indicate that the controller had a Real Time Clock.
Well needless to say, I never saw that item before! (its now set).
The repeaters will reload their clocks on Saturday morning between 9 and 10 am (hopefully).
The antenna at NFM is still on the old tower, and the new tower is quite a bit higher.
There was no evidence of furry little creatures either.
I also placed our styrofoam blockers in the vents to keep out most of the snow.
An interior light would be nice too. We should clean up the shack and area in the spring and paint the exterior to spruce it up and prevent further deterioration.
I am sure that I have to return to the sites sometime to make further programming changes, so just log in and attach any notes you may have to this message (I've enabled comments).
