[bars] Fwd: [mmra] Why are the Billerica repeaters not back yet?

[ARTHUR PIZER]

Then, again,  in the world of sports, Ravens are a football team and Hawks are a basketball team.  So the outcome might be different.  But I digress . . .Regardless of the delay due to the nesting ravens at the antenna site, I wish to thank the MMRA for their efforts getting the new site online.

"The hawks would not necessarily take out the ravens nest.  The are about the same size bird and the fight could go either way. Plenty of action on YouTube.  Lets hope the ravens leave soon so the repeater will be back in new and improved form."
