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 )
MB7UB is the APRS data digipeater.

CTCSS and 1750 tone burst.

For those observant ones of you will have noticed that -

  • CTCSS is now enabled on both RX and TX (ie Encode and Decode) This required a bit of bypassing and modification of the logic board.
  • 1750hz tone burst is now working. This seems to have been caused by a dirty IC socket. All of the sockets on the board have been cleaned.

Hope you find this useful. And please don't forget the Interlink is active. Information on usage is contained elsewhere on the blog.
