Providing a service for all Radio Amateurs

A Repeater

is a relay system primarily for mobile and portable radio users. Such as from the car or on foot. Located high up in Charnwood Forest, Leicestershire, it extends your range by many miles and beyond the county.
It does this by re-broadcasting your VHF, UHF, microwave or TV signals. The complex radio beacons and switching equipment are maintained by group members and helpers.

GB3GV TV repeater - Update

David G8OBP, repeater keeper GV, reports:
Much improved results have recently been obtained through GV following the hardware rebuild of last year together with the recent antenna refurbishment and feeder replacement!

Many thanks to all who helped on site over the last few weeks; especially Geoff G4AFJ (for the mast climbing) and Nigel M1NAS (for the antenna repairs).
Unfortunately, GV is still suffering from some slight radar interference.
We are hoping to work on the problem over the next few months with the installation of a better receive preamp and some experimentation with improved filtering.
Only time will tell if we have any success.
Watch this space for more updates or better still - take an on-air look at GB3GV.
