Repeater Update – 24 October 2022

A site visit was made to GB3FK / GB7CK today, everything is working well and ready for the winter period.

We replaced the Sim card that provides connectivity for GB7CK, this should last for 2 years. We also installed a large leisure battery for GB7CK, this will last ages in a power outage.  Note: this will only work in “local” mode in a power failure, not on the network.
We have paid our site rent for the next 12 months, we have electric to pay again next and that charge is expected to rise after April 2023.

GB3FK – We are aware of the old crunching noises and QRM, we will try and trace and look at this in the coming months. Otherwise, its working very well.

GB7CK – Excellent coverage and great reports.
