In the last week, AREG members have teamed up with the Adelaide Hills Amateur Radio Society (AHARS) to help bring the Crafers VK5RAD 70cm 439.925MHz repeater back to life. Temporary equipment has been loaned to the site while repairs continue on the original repeater.
VK5RAD 70cm Repeater Access Details:
- Repeater Transmit: 439.925MHz
- Repeater Receive: 434.925MHz (-5MHz offset)
Thanks to everyone at AHARS and AREG for restoring this valuable service to amateurs in the greater Adelaide area.
NOTE Regarding IRLP Node 6214
The 6214-IRLP node currently is still on the VK5RSB 70cm repeater on 439.900 (contrary to what was broadcast on the WIA Sunday News this week). AREG is discussing the plans for its move currently with AHARS and the AREG membership. We will advise when the IRLP gateway does move.
