Weekly neighbor-link report for the EVV mesh, run November 6, 2026.
7 days of data · 22 repeaters seen · 21,127 relayed packets
This week's data looks unusual, so read the results with care. Only 21,127 relayed packets this week against 43,773 last week.
What needs attention
- ⚠️ This week's data: Something looks off in this week's data, so read the rest with care. Only 21,127 relayed packets this week against 43,773 last week.
- ⚠️ Quiet repeaters: 1 low-traffic repeater went quiet for a day or more. T114 Repeater KD9PFH (last relay Wed Nov 4, 12:06 PM, 20 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. Haubstadt South, MECO Roof G2 and Opie's Truck. It may be off the air, or only its traffic may have stopped reaching an observer.
- ⚠️ Week over week: 7 links got weaker than last week. EVV_SIM4 St. Vincent hears EVV_SIR6 Red Cross: 78% last week, 21% now; SIM5 McCuchanville FD hears EVV_SIR3 Germantownship: 86% last week, 44% now; EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt hears EVV_SIR6 Red Cross: 52% last week, 11% now; EVV_SIR6 Red Cross hears KC9EP Solar: 46% last week, 7% now; EVV_SIM4 St. Vincent hears SIR7_Herbie's Peo.Rep.: 42% last week, 17% 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 9 of 22 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_SIM1 Deaconess Midt, EVV_SIM4 St. Vincent, EVV_SIR1 KD4SIR, EVV_SIR6 Red Cross, Harmony Way 1W, JAG3 - Solar, Lynch & Green River Rep, SIM5 McCuchanville FD and SIR7_Herbie's Peo.Rep.. Until more lists are readable, the grid above has to infer hearing from relayed traffic.
- ⚠️ One-way links: 23 repeater pairs are heard much better one way than the other. SIM5 McCuchanville FD hears SIR8_KE9YK Peo.Rep. in 97% of shared hours, but SIR8_KE9YK Peo.Rep. hears SIM5 McCuchanville FD in 0%; SIR8_KE9YK Peo.Rep. hears JAG3 - Solar in 88% of shared hours, but JAG3 - Solar hears SIR8_KE9YK Peo.Rep. in 0%; KC9EP-Observer1 hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt in 83% of shared hours, but EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt hears KC9EP-Observer1 in 0%. 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: 4 links got stronger than last week. KC9EP RPI hears SIR7_Herbie's Peo.Rep.: 4% last week, 73% now; KC9EP RPI hears EVV_SIR6 Red Cross: 4% last week, 65% now; Lynch & Green River Rep hears OAK1: 27% last week, 60% now; EVV_SIR6 Red Cross hears Lynch & Green River Rep: 30% last week, 62% now.
- ✅ Strong repeater pairs: The backbone links that hold up most hours. KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP-Observer1 100%; KC9EP RPI hears KC9EP Solar 100%; KC9EP RPI hears EVV_SIM1 Deaconess Midt 97%; SIM5 McCuchanville FD hears SIR8_KE9YK Peo.Rep. 97%; EVV_SIR1 KD4SIR hears Harmony Way 1W 91%; SIR8_KE9YK Peo.Rep. hears JAG3 - Solar 88%.
- ℹ️ Time of day: Marginal links are weakest 9 AM to 12 PM and best 3 AM to 6 AM. Links whose median SNR is below 0 dB heard 33% of adverts in the worst 3-hour block and 54% in the best. Only links already near the edge show this; strong links don't.
