The club net on MONDAY evenings at 2000hrs local has now moved to the 2M repeater GB3JL on 145.78750 with a shift of -600Khz with an 77Hz access tone. This has been done in order to provide better coverage of our local area, so far all our members who wish to have been able to join the net, why don’t you join us ? Non-members very welcome, pop on and say hello!
