Link issue between Anzio Catterick and YM-Catterick

The link between Anzio Catterick and the YM-Catterick repeater deployed by someone as part of the wider Yorkshire Mesh is sadly not that great with the repeater as configured and is very hit and miss if it works at all, as the repeater has guest access to the stats I was lucky enough to be able to look at this via Anzio Catterick of course and this revealed the problem, the signal strength between these two repeaters is very low, around -126dBm meaning it is more than likely below the noise floor to the degree that Anzio Catterick is struggling to hear it but it does on occasion hear it

The above image is as far as I got with the information, I only needed the SNR and RSSI values anyway to try and get to the bottom of what is going on, which means an antenna swap for Anzio Catterick is an absolute must considering it is currently running on a Paradar whip meant for the companion radios, when YM-Catterick does push a flood advert it is 50/50 if Anzio Catterick sees it, also I don't know what antenna is on this repeater and that too could be having an influence.

When I get a burst of traffic it is often one of two repeaters as the last hop before Anzio Catterick, these are either YM-Catterick or YM-Garrowby_Hill as both are seen by Anzio Catterick as zero-hop and very similar signal strength, the latter repeater is somewhere between York and Driffield and that is a fair distance away and the signal off that one is poor as to be expected.

I will look into expediting the antenna swap if that is feasible to do and update soon
