 From me, as a small time, "domestic budget" repeater owner, and 
maintainer of several pieces of key VoIP infrastructure, I say "Thank 
you" to those like Steve and Mark who put the time and money into 
running repeaters on commercial sites.  I certainly don't have the 
time or money to run something like VK3RHF or a major D-STAR gateway.
