UHF repeater relocated

Peter VK5BE, Andrew VK5VKC, Colin VK5DK and Leith VK5FLAR installed the UHF repeater (439.825/434.825) at The Bluff on Sunday 24/5/20. The unit is now running off mains power.

The antennas are temporarily placed at this time until tower issues are resolved. In the meantime there are much improved signals, especially to the NW. Well done fellas. There was quite a lot of activity testing the repeater this afternoon. Not as good in Mt Gambier as expected – it’s a long way away, but still usable mobile. David VK5HDW had usable signals mobile in Millicent.

2 metre repeater in left cabinet, 439 MHz repeater in right cabinet with 2M backup battery. The Portland link will require some re-arrangement to go in the left hand cabinet.
