These last 4 posts moved to the correct topic by me
Both 2m and 70cm NCRG repeaters have been down for ages. If somebody knows more, feel free to update us

Re: WA Amateur radio repeaters and beacons
Looks like Tic Hill 70cm repeater is functioning again. I saw VK6POP on APRS around the site so I assume the repeater is back on site. Looks like there's a Packet Radio there now as well.

Re: WA Amateur radio repeaters and beacons
Repeater update:
Tic Hill 2m and 70cm repeaters are off air. Suspected antenna fault. The APRS digipeater is still working as it's on a separate antenna.
The new Roleystone UHF repeater VK6RAP - 439.800MHz is on-air on a backup antenna. It will eventually be replacing 438.525MHz which is plagued with LIPD interference. The new repeater doesn't require CTCSS to access.

Re: WA Amateur radio repeaters and beacons
Has anyone tried Cataby (those that can normally get it) today? Just wondering if the repeater is in the area of the Dandaragan fire.

Re: WA Amateur radio repeaters and beacons
Definately on-air.. I couldn't hit it using my H/H from the fireground though (about 70km's further north).
Re: WA Amateur radio repeaters and beacons
Word from VK6LD is that VK6RAA is off the air for the time being. Storm damage to the antenna is the culprit.
Re: WA Amateur radio repeaters and beacons
G'day All,
VK6RPT, the portable 70cms repeater, is back operational at Walliston. 438.025MHz, -ve offset (5.0MHz split), no tone required.
Coverage is excellent considering it's only a 5W repeater!
Regards, Duncan - VK6GHZ
