[net.ham-radio] Repeater Control

The gist of the comments on simplex patches indicates that repeaters are
ok because of control links.  However, I suspect that many of the
"control links" are not used on many repeaters during significant
portions of the day.  Try raising the "control operator" on many
repeaters at odd hours.  Frequently I\am unable to do so - I suspect the
only thing you can do that would cause a repeater to shut you off is to
time it out.
