Weekly neighbor-link report for the EVV mesh, run October 23, 2026.
7 days of data · 21 repeaters seen · 25,519 relayed packets
What needs attention
- ⚠️ Missing repeaters: 1 repeater seen last week was not seen relaying or being relayed this week. MJ Solar. It may be off the air, or only its traffic may have stopped reaching an observer.
- ⚠️ Repeater neighbor lists: We can read only 1 of 21 repeaters' own neighbor lists. Each repeater records which repeaters it hears every hour, with SNR. MeshMonitor can read that list over the mesh, but only with a saved guest or admin password, and so far it has one for EVV_SIR1 KD4SIR. Until more lists are readable, the grid above has to infer hearing from relayed traffic.
- ⚠️ One-way links: 20 repeater pairs are heard much better one way than the other. EVV_SIR3 Germantownship hears EVV_SIM3 St. Wendel in 90% of shared hours, but EVV_SIM3 St. Wendel hears EVV_SIR3 Germantownship in 4%; KC9EP RPI hears SIM5 McCuchanville FD in 94% of shared hours, but SIM5 McCuchanville FD hears KC9EP RPI in 10%; EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt hears OAK1 in 79% of shared hours, but OAK1 hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt in 3%. Some of this is just traffic no observer sees. Unequal antenna height or gain, or noise at one end, is the usual real cause.
- ✅ Week over week: 14 links got stronger than last week. KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP Solar: 46% last week, 98% now; KC9EP Solar hears KC9EP RPI: 35% last week, 86% now; KC9EP RPI hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt: 44% last week, 93% now; KC9EP RPI hears EVV_SIM4 St. Vincent: 39% last week, 81% now; KC9EP Solar hears KC9EP-Observer1: 27% last week, 69% now.
- ✅ Strong repeater pairs: The backbone links that hold up most hours. KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP-Observer1 100%; KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP Solar 98%; KC9EP RPI hears SIM5 McCuchanville FD 94%; KC9EP RPI hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt 93%; EVV_SIR3 Germantownship hears EVV_SIM3 St. Wendel 90%; KC9EP-Observer1 hears KC9EP RPI 87%.
