Welcome to GB3YA repeater in Cwmbran
Latest News
To all interested parties.. WELL! Our club had a surprise visit from Ofcom this Friday 03.03.2023 to check out our station and repeater... Everything passed with flying colours including the power output of the repeater which was just under 11 watts.. The guys who came said we had a fantastic venue and radio setup and everything was well within legal parameters.. Thanks to all concerned and they thanked Ken the repeater keeper for a fine job.. Thanks to Ashley for all his hard work on this and echolink.
Again, thanks to the former keeper of GB3RT for closing it down and giving us the chance to get the new VHF repeater and a far advanced echolink system courtesy of Ashley UXJ, much appreciated.
