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 )

GB3JB CTCSS Tone change

Repeated here for information.
 
Hi All,

As some of you may be aware there have been QRM issues with the Eastbourne repeater, GB3EB and GB3JB.

These issues result from the the fact that it has been licensed on RV63 and with an 88.5 Hz CTCSS tone, as per GB3JB.

Following communications between myself, the GB3EB keeper, and ETCC, it has been agreed that GB3JB will change its ctcss tone, to help alleviate the issue.

It has been decided to change from the current 88.5 Hz to 103.5 Hz.

This change will take affect at approx., 3 pm local time, on Sunday 16th March 2014.

Please change your equipment's ctcss encode and decode frequency, with respect to GB3JB.

Cheers & 73's
Dave, G3ZXX.
