Excellent repeater. Great coverage. On top of the Jeptha Knob hills - highest point in the Bluegrass Region. The elevation of the hills alone are 1,188ft (not including the massive towers).

The KB4PTJ repeater is a great repeater, great coverage, battery backup, and weather alerting! A great repeater I recommend using!
