RF amplifiers have now been added to both the 146.760 VHF and 444.500 UHF club repeaters at Atlas. These are genuine continuous duty repeater amplifiers and each is capable of 100 watts output. After duplexer/combiner losses we get about 60 watts into the antenna feedlines, before we had about 10 watts out.
This should improve how you hear the repeaters however it does not improve the repeaters’ receive sensitivity.
