I started a new bunch of measurements previous could be found following this link

Measurements on the repeater of Ghent ONØOV: (go to end of table)

Now you can send us your own report concerning the repeater.

Mean values of the previous measurements
Date	Relais Open	Squelch Open	full scale	Remarks
from 28/03/2001 until 16/04/2001	-31db	-27.2db	-24.5db	A=1 P=1

Meaning of the fields:
- Date & GMT (no comment)
- Relais Open: Attenuation of the output signal on low power to open the repeater.
- Squelch Open: Attenuation of the output signal on low power to open the squelch when the transmitter is on air. (Normal regime).
- Full Scale: Attenuation on receive to deflect the "s-meter" on the IC-02E on full scale.

Send us your own report concerning the repeater.(Ook uw rapporten kunnen helpen)

Legend conditions:

A=1 : Antennas low - A=2 Antennas High
A=3 Antenna is wide-band omni directional (no gain)

- P=0 : No Preamp -
- P=1 With Preamp SSB-Electronics
- P=2 With Preamp home brew by ON5NN (using a MGF1303 G.A.S.-FET)
Pwr = Output power measured between the cavities and the cable leaving for the transmition antenna
T=xx : Temperature in °C
H=xx : Humidity in %
D=xx : Dew point in °C
P=xxxx : Pressure in hPa
W=xxx/yy.y : Wind xxx = direction yy.y = speed in Km/h
C=xx : Conditions cl = clear- hc=Half-Covered - mc=Mostly Cloudy - ov = Overcast - lr = Light rain - ra = rain
V=xx : Visibility in km
Tr=xx : Tropo predictions index (Tropo predictions are based on predictions William Hepburn's VHF-UHF website counting a margin of +/- 400Km.)

Tropo Index of 1 = Some downward bending occurs. but usually no discernible tropo.
Tropo Index of 1.4 = Seems to be the average threshold of discernible tropo. Marginal conditions.
Tropo Index of 2 = Weak to fair opening.
Tropo Index of 3 = Moderate opening.
Tropo Index of 4 = Good opening.
Tropo Index of 5 = Strong opening.
Tropo Index of 6 = Very strong opening.
Tropo Index of 7 = Intense opening.
Tropo Index of 8 = Very intense opening.
Tropo Index of 9 or 10 = Extremely intense opening.
