Antenna

Hi all,

The repeater is still running on a low antenna on the mast. This is due to the QRM we are still experiencing. 433.9125 is full of low power devices, hence QRM on the input of GB7FK.
There is nothing we can do about this except from a frequency change. This is being looked into at the moment. Hopefully the new year will bring a few frequency.

Once the new frequency is obtained we will hopefully be trouble free!

Pictured to the left is GB7FK Dstar repeater. The Repeater controller is at the top, and the 70cms module.

The Linux server is on the next shelf, and then the power supply and UPS.
Enough room in the cabinet for future ports :)

GB7FK in its new location!

GB7FK was moved into a new 19" rackmount yesterday which now has the repeater, PC, Power supplys and all other equipment in it. A much neater installation in the living room!!
