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.

What is APRS??

Heard a couple of locals on UB last night asking 'what is this APRS thing'?

Well found this site which explains it very well.

CTCSS Change

For those running CTCSS you may have noticed a change. CTCSS is now enabled all the time. You will not here the 'K' only through audio. You will here the callsign when the repeater first starts but that is all. Sounds good and will enable the Echolink to function quicker when that is running CTCSS.
