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.

Noise

Sitting in the shack rebuilding my laptop after a hard drive failure, I noticed the repeater is being held open by a pulse noise. It does not block any audio but is very annoying and is not that great for the repeater to be kept open for long periods. I am guessing it may be a car key fob on site but may of cause be something the primary user is generating. Too help me if you could listen on the input (434.7) and let me know if and where you can hear it.
