2 new repeaters licensed!

Post by g8gtz » Thu Dec 04, 2014 9:17 pm

We have had notification this week of 2 new 3.4 GHz repeaters NoVs being issued.

GB3NV in Norwich on 3406 MHz and GB3HV at Farnham on 3408 MHz.

That should keep a few of us busy building equipment to get them on the air!

The BATC shop currently has no stock of the C Band LNB - can you post if you want to buy 1 (or 2) and if there is enough interest we will order a batch from the USA.

Hi Steve,

I presume you mean this one:

It's even a PLL unit - at that price, you can't beat it - hope he's got several!

Hi Noel,
Thanks for the Christmas present, now to put all the bits in the shack together. Filtering and antenna more or less sorted for inputs and output. Antenna need some more work before its winchester proof...
