Repairing incapacitated POS modules

So I have this incapacitated module in a WH. It's my module, it's at a working POS, and it became damaged by combatants. Shield is 100%, Armor 0%, Structure 99%. I understand this is typical.

So I put a few battleships to work with hull repair modules to rep up the structure. I assumed I could rep up the structure to 100%, then work on armor next.

But it's been more than an hour and structure just sits at 99%. Am I doing something wrong? Is there any way to see what kind of progress I'm making?

Do I pretty much need a capital ship with capital sized hull repair modules?

Do I need to repair the armor first?

You have two options. Rep it to full, or remove it by force.

Does the order matter - IE armor first then structure or vice versa? On ships it doesn't matter so I assume here it doesn't matter - is that right?

And then using the same modules that you'd normally use on ships (armor rep and hull rep) works, correct? I'm using Large Armor Repairer II and Large Hull Repairer II.

Correct. So long as it gets repped to full, it goes back to normal.

Not sure if it was just a typo, but make sure you are using remote repair modules. I.E. you wouldn't want Large Armor Repairer II but rather Large Remote Armor Repair System II to rep a POS structure. Repairing the 1% hull damage on incap'd arrays typically goes very fast so for this at least skills and using high meta modules are typically not a big deal. For that matter using smalls or mediums is fine too unless you're doing it under fire.

OMG, I must be sleep deprived because I was NOT using the remote reps, I was using Large Armor Repair II, etc. My gosh, what I dumb mistake but THANKS SO MUCH for point it out. That right there was my problem!!!!

Also, try using a ship that gives a bonus to remote armor reps. Even if you can't fly logistics, you still can use an Exequror, which gives multiple bonuses to such things.

I got laughed out of my first outpost repping effort. They were all repping shields and all I had was a remote armor repper (or mebbe it was other way round ... a long time ago). I figured that a rep was a rep. Unfortunately my corpmates noticed the different coloured rays and called me on it. Oops

I guess I am almost a 'vet' by now. Hopefully not too bitter and managing to help more than I hinder. I build and sell many things, including large collections of bookmarks.
