2021 (July/Aug) – Merrick Lodge

Adjustments on the west end of Section 8 required a change to the existing 2-way radio system. Rigstar replaced the Kenwood digital repeater system with a new Motorola SLR5700 Moto TRBO system to accommodate their existing fleet.
Service was delivered to the last camp along the Coastal GasLink Pipeline project with the commissioning of Merrick Lodge. This required 2 additional mountain top repeaters to be constructed south of Chetwynd to deliver 300Mbps symmetrical. The sites are operating with no disruptions and are powered only by solar and wind.
