Repeater changes:  The Washington State Department of Natural Resources has declined to renew an amateur radio lease for the repeater site on Larch Mountain in Clark County.  As a result, these repeaters are no longer operational: CLRK 25, CLRK 30, CLRK 31, CLRK 37, CLRK 42, CLRK 43.  Some may be relocated and some dismantled.  The Clark County ARES/RACES Handi-Card is being updated to reflect these changes.
