A liitle about the repeater

Both repeaters are located HERE, on the roof of Bath University overlooking the historic city of Bath

GB3UB is the 70cm 433mhz voice repeater and operates on 433.100/434.700mhz, ctcss 118.8hz. It uses a converted Storno base station using G8CUL logic running 10w to two Jaybeam folded dipoles. It provides hand-held coverage around the city of Bath, out towards Chippenham, down towards Midsomer Norton and across towards Westbury. It is internet linked via Echolink (node no. 201135 )

Interference on GB3UB

Couple of weeks ago noticed that the squelch on the repeater was being held open by a data carrier. I assumed at the time it was a car lock. However, the same thing happened today, Saturday again. After talking to another user I was told the same thing had happened during the week. Anyway as of this afternoon the interference had gone. I will have a listen next weekend and if the same thing is happening will make a site visit for a bit of 'dfing'. In the mean time if you hear the interference could you email the times and dates so we can build up a picture of it. Apart from that the repeater continues to operate as it should.
