Has the Mt Lincoln repeater changed?

[Ross S]

I went to try out a couple of new HTs that I just got (Retevis RA89 and a TIDradio H3), and used Chirp to copy over my programming (after setting it for the new models, of course). But it appears that RepeaterBook has different information for the Mt Lincoln repeater than was programmed in my old HTs. But I can't even get a response from it. 

IS the Mt Lincoln repeater still in service?

It is still on the air.  I was just up there working on it this spring.

Have you used it recently? From my home in South Starksboro, I can hit the Middlebury repeater and the Monkton 70cm repeater with my new HT, but I get dead silence from Mt Lincoln. And, as I said, has the programming changed? My Baofeng F8 used to be able to hit it... but the programming you cited is different. Trying to hit it with the Baofeng now just yields one quick breaking of squelch and that's it - I no longer hear the reply from the transmitter.

I just keyed up the Lincoln repeater from Barre. It keys right up, audible tail easily heard, then transmitted its ID, which I clearly heard also.

It's working fine.

I haven't changed the programming in years on the radio I used to key it up, so the PL code and frequencies clearly haven't changed.
