@ai6yr @malachi17RV No joke, can you break squelch on 435 from where you are? Or the Santiago peak box? Both of those may be good options, particularly the Santiago box. Those guys are at least not completely full of themselves and during the OC fires some years ago they were generous for suspending their normal shittalk ops and letting us use the box for emergency nets

@robert @malachi17RV We have some other repeaters we can use (as @W6KME describes), it's just our immediately local ones get shut off every time the wind blows (ie if we had a big emergency someone could get out to someone -- probably for me all the way out to Catalina Island). But the local hams all go in the dark during emergencies because the normal repeater frequencies all go dead.
@ai6yr @robert @malachi17RV MOAR SIMPLEX!!
Actually, I've been taking advantage of the outages to try and promote more simplex use lately on our daily net, and last week we were getting above-average checkin numbers using it.
