Hastings Site Update
Posted: Thu Sep 23, 2021 11:25 am
The RILGES Hasting site is now back in operation as a new school (Flagship School’s new campus on the site of the former Ark Helenswood Upper School). This is great news as it is a superb site.
A special licence is underway to allow RILGES to re-install the repeaters (GB7HE, GB3JT, GB3HX), and re-erect the main mast on top of the tower block. Around two days work is required for this, so once we have a green light Dan M0HOW and myself can plan the works. This is currently in legal processing and we hope to get back very soon.
The original GB3JT hardware really worked well, on 24/7 and stable but still pondering on using a Portsdown to provide more flexibility. Will see what pans and what time is available.
