Jaye, et al...  The BOSLEY Butte repeater has awoken, now three months 
comotose, with a repeating noise.  Not much to be done. Bosley was 
acquired by hostile takeover a couple years ago by a repeater-collector 
living 100mi north of Curry Co.  Bosley is the highest repeater in Curry 
and covers most of the coast.  Now, it can be off the air for months at 
a time.  It's a lick on Curry Co, for sure, but nothing can be done 
about it today.  The takeover was enabled by the then Trustee who owned 
the equipment.  Bosley has been the County emergency repeater since b4 I 
was licensed in '91.  Bosley will be up whenever the owner feels like 
driving over to Curry to see what's up.   73 Doug K7KY
