The problem is, it's hard putting up a CB repeater because it's hard to find a site. It has to be more than 20Kms from any other CB repeater and 100Kms from any repeater on the same channel.

Then you have to try and negotiate site access for something less than the $5000 odd a year most of them ask...

i know that but he is holding the licence even though hes taking the repeater down ,just to make it harder for anyone else to put one up, its just his way of playing god like he always trys to do , because hes nothing with out his repeater and his "power to turn it off"

I was reading the ACMA Information paper on the CBRS Repeater and there is something in there about if it is not in use / commissioned for 12 months then the status of the license may be reviewed. I'd guess someone would have to bring it to the ACMA's attention though.

I agree though, he really should hand it in so someone else can take over a northern suburbs UHF repeater if they wish.

Would anyone be that stupid? LOL

maybe someone should contact him and make him an offer if they want the licence so badly then they can setup their own repeater and suffer the their own problems LOL

well vk6hsv why dont you give up the license hey george cause there are bout 5 ppl i know that would like a better managed repeater than what you offered its free to air radio yet you was controling it like it wasnt by stomping on ppl and whats so ever the ppl that paintballed ya house prob had a good reason for it like many cbers we were all getting a bit pissed of with it so do everyone a favour give up the license and get over it

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHHA ok VK6HSV

Well Frank the equipments sold to QLD and the licence has been sold this evening also... so it appears "its been gotten over" but if you dont like things on a particular channel all you have to do is switch it off or switch to another one that doesnt make you cry or hurt your feelings as much..

This is due to some retard CBERS driving past the Owner/Licencee of the repeaters house and using a paintball gun to shootup his house & car, After providing a FREE service for so long and to be repayed in this fashion who could blame them really.
I understand he is holding the licence though which ensures no more CBERS repeaters can be setup in a 50km radius acording to the ACMA.
Thanks To Adam AKA Jack & Daniel AKA Tonka, (2 Men around 30 years of age) who decided to paintball the owners house & car.

WELL, thats a suppires, after all that i thought they would have beat him up or somthing.

it better not be per06, otherwise people cant access qun06 during an inversion!

Thats the story you have proberly heard from the owner as thats what he was telling everyone. However any CBer would know what i'm talking about when I say he does start alot of trouble on the repeater. Playing god, abusing the mud stations etc.. Yes this is a personal opinion but I am not the only one. The owner of the repeater did provoke the offenders into paintballing his home. He was always down their throats on the air and acting as god saying how he didn't like them so they shouldn't go on the RPT. At the end of the day, the repeater is a free service and the repeaters are open to anyone and everyone who wishes to use them. Owners have no right in saying who is allowed to use them.

I spose what goes around comes around.. you can't go out giving people crap and provoking such things and not expect anything in return. Guess he needed to have a more positive outlook on everyone.

Do you ever hear about the owners of rolleystone repeater or chnl 8 in perth (when it was up) getting paintballed or lawn digs etc? No.. because noone has problems with the people on those commities because they are nice and give everyone a fair go. Not like the owner of PER01.

NO behaviour excuses the use of violence, vandalism or "paintballing".

Even if the owner of the repeater may have been running it in the way described, that does NOT mean that violence of any sort is warranted.

Couldnt have said it better myself WPXZBP, some people just need to grow up and learn some old fashion manners & respect for other people and their property!!

Anyone with a repeater available thought about approaching one of the TV or radio stations and asked for sponsored (free) space on their towers in Bickley, or better still, Dianella?
