Hi Iain
Thanks for that. I wasn't sure what has happened to the 3G last i heard it was going to be taken off air. I will head up the hill later and do some RX testing....

Re: VK5RBV 146.825 replaced with Yaesu DR-1X
Hi Peter
Just wondering how you guys are going with your Repeater. Ours down in the south (VK5RSC) seems to be going along well. We put the 91.5 tone on analogue TX/RX to save people from hearing the Digital hash on analogue radios. Are you guys noticing any issues without having the tone?

VK5RSC 439.825 Now with Fusion
Hi All Just a note that the VK5RSC 439.825 repeater has been changed over to a Yaesu Fusion Repeater. This is currently Running in Auto mode. The analogue access now requires a 91.5 tone that is also present on the O/P to stop Digital Hash on your old analogue equipment. Any Issues please let us kno...

Hi All Just letting you all know that the SA 10M Repeater (VK5RSC) is currently being worked on. I am replacing the old 828s that were part of the repeater chain.

Hi All I have recently (Last Night) acquired a lot of old ATV equipment (1.2, 3.3 and 10GHz) biased on the Mini Kits range of products. I sent Mark an email and he was able to help out with a few of the instruction books for items but wasn't able to help out with them all. I am now chasing the books...

Re: VKCL Transveerter settings
What do you put in thoes boxes to allow logging of 1296.200 when on say 144.200 on the FT-817 (Connected as radio 2). Its not that self explanatory how it works. I thought i had it by entering the offsets but didn't do it. I tried entering the frequency but its after a code. VKCL.PNG Would that give...

Hi All I have the usual setup of a 817 that i use for my IF rig and was hoping that i could get VKCL to except that when it is on 2m for that rig it would log that it was doing 23cm. There doesn't seem to be part in the help file for this setup page. Has anyone got it to work that way, if so how? Th...

Re: Microwave test day, 8th Nov Southern Adelaide .
A Big thanks to all who made it out for the test day. It has proven to be a worthwhile exercise from my point as I had a few "Bugs" to sort out in the transverters. Now ready for next weekend!

Re: Microwave "Show and Tell" in VK5
Hi Mal
Sounds like it will be a good night. I will bring along the 1.2 and 2.4GHz transverters that I have been building.
Do you know if anyone will bring along some test equipment for these bands like Power meter, Specan, Freq Counter etc? It would be good to make it a Test and Tune event as well.
