Frequencys changed

Hi all,

Thanks to Don for his help tonight. we are now on the new Frequencys on 70cms.
We did a few tests tonight, and its miles better! no qrm, or any breakthru detected.

Just got to sort the antenna at the weekend weather permitting.

Hi all,

I now have the new NOV for the Frequency change.
repeater input - 430.600
repeater output - 439.600

I have listened on the channels and they are QRM free as far as i can see!

The change will hopefully take place in the next week.

New Antenna for GB7FK

Hi all,

The new antenna for GB7FK has been ordered. I have ordered a Diamond
X-510N. As soon as i get the antenna i shall install it on the tower and use is on GB7FK 70cms port.
We have found the coverage to be fairly good on the X50, it will be interesting to see what difference this will make.

IC-E92 Handheld + lots of users!

Well the ICOM E92 Handheld is now available at a very reasonable price.
The radio is better than the E91 with a improved battery life, a decent belt clip,
and lots of nice features, as well as waterproof.

We have quite a few users now on GB7FK, a few new ones too, welcome everyone!
