MB7UB RIP

After many years of service, I have decided to close down MB7UB. Over the last few years the RF use of APRS has almost been overtaken by internet based systems and smartphone App's. There is still some RF mobiles about but in my view not enough to justify relicensing etc. So unless I get a massive rush of interest, MB7UB R.I.P.
