Cajon and Needles for the last two weeks.

[Royalgorge]

Just want to give Kristi a shout out to say HI!  I also wanted to report on ATCS no station status.  The following are dark on the Needles Sub:  Ludlow, West Ash Hill, both Siberia's, West Amboy West Cadiz through Ibis.  The following are dark on the Cajon
Sub:  West Riverside through Keenbrook  some indications come through rarely but not enough to follow Amtrak.  San Bardo and Keenbrook are always dead.  Lenwood through Barstow are BCP ONLY with East D Yard and Barstow being dead.  Sure would like to know the statue of OUR listening posts and not assume anything in the conversion relm has happened.   Thank You much for your information.

Sincerely

Conductor Timothy

I understand that cameras are really cool but does anybody want ATCS to still
work where available?

Hi Jeff;

I just wanted to get an update on the West half of Cajon and the
East half of Needles.  Is there a radio station or server
that went out?  Did the ITCM Monster strike in these
areas?  Just want to know and thank you for a reply.

Sincerely

Hi Timothy,
I just got done talking with the host yesterday and they were supposed to get replacement equipment for their StarLink system today, not sure if they got it.

Hi Jeff;

Sounds like internet connection type stuff right?

Never a dull moment.  Thanks for trying Jeff!
You may have more success getting the West
side of Cajon functioning.  Even CP Walker
is dark.  I can't win there either.

We are back up at Goffs!  Looks like nothing lost to ITCM at the moment.

Dodged a bullet on the Needles Sub.  Next one Cajon inspection.

Thank You for your efforts.

Hi Jeff;

I could just scream.       Goffs is broken again.
Everything west of Cajon including Walker is dead on
Cajon map.  To bad your listening post on the inside
gateway is out of service.  Please see if you can get
these back working  Thank You very much.

Looks fine to me Tim, Needles is sending data.

Jeff;

I have another issue with my internet provider.  I use T-MOBILE at home internet
which draws off there cell phone towers.  I have traded out my modem from T-Mo.
4 times and each time after about a week there computer shuts OFF all feeds from
any ATCS server EXCEPT cz17.homeip.com in the LA area.  Otherwise the whole
country is blanked out to me.  I can go to other places that have Century Link DSL
and it works fine including other T-Mo. towers that are NOT close to me.  Any
thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks for getting Needles at Goffs in shape.  I just wondered if you could get
the West Side of Cajon more dependable.  Yes sometimes stations do come in BUT
they drop out way to often.  CP San Bernardino is ALWAYS dead.  On the east side
CP West D yard and Jewel is always BCP only.  Is there any possibility of
turning the Mojave Sub listening post back ON?  When this was working west
Cajon was always dependable. I hope all this reporting helps and Thank You
for your efforts keeping these going.

Unfortunately our site in Phelan can only get so much over the hill South of its location.  ATCS is now being converted to ITCM on the Gallup Sub.  At this point in time, we are not adding any more sites but continue to maintain them until the end.  The site gets whatever Weather Ducting gives us and during the hotter months, it gets lots less.

What ever happened to CP Walker and CP Ibis they are both DARK!  Where is Phelen located?
