Weekly neighbor-link report for the EVV mesh, run October 30, 2026.
7 days of data · 21 repeaters seen · 43,773 relayed packets
What needs attention
- ⚠️ Quiet repeaters: 2 low-traffic repeaters went quiet for a day or more. SIR4 KO9O evvmesh.org (last relay Sun Oct 25, 10:42 PM, 23 all week) and EVV_SIM3 St. Wendel (last relay Wed Oct 28, 2:40 PM, 48 all week). They carried little traffic to begin with, so this may be nothing, but check them if it lasts.
- ⚠️ Missing repeaters: 3 repeaters seen last week were not seen relaying or being relayed this week. JAG3 - Solar, KF6XA MC SR1 and RAK4631. It may be off the air, or only its traffic may have stopped reaching an observer.
- ⚠️ Week over week: 2 links got weaker than last week. SIM5 McCuchanville FD hears EVV-Airport: 67% last week, 26% now; Harmony Way 1W hears EVV_SIR1 KD4SIR: 61% last week, 22% now. A drop on several links at one repeater points at that repeater; a drop on one link points at that path.
- ⚠️ 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 97% of shared hours, but EVV_SIM3 St. Wendel hears EVV_SIR3 Germantownship in 3%; KC9EP-Observer1 hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt in 88% of shared hours, but EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt hears KC9EP-Observer1 in 1%; EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt hears OAK1 in 88% of shared hours, but OAK1 hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt in 2%. 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: 1 link got stronger than last week. KC9EP Solar hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt: 24% last week, 48% now.
- ✅ Strong repeater pairs: The backbone links that hold up most hours. KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP-Observer1 100%; EVV_SIR3 Germantownship hears EVV_SIM3 St. Wendel 97%; KC9EP RPI hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt 96%; KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP Solar 93%; EVV_SIR1 KD4SIR hears Harmony Way 1W 90%; KC9EP-Observer1 hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt 88%.
