News Flash after much trouble from a small group of Amateurs (Ex CB’ers)
After many months a trip to our local MP to find out what the hold up was, (PS Please note) with in days it was approved, I wounder why it took so long?
Randall has Echolink is up and running VK3RMW 145.350 MHz 97.4 CTCSS
I ask the question why it took over 14 months to get a repeater licence? are the WIA doing there job or is it time to have them replaced?.
We are a active small club who believes in helping our fellow hams get on the air and to stay on the air.
Our group aim is to have fun with the hobby, we don’t have time to sit around talking about how good we are like many Amateurs do!
“We just get up and do it!”

Never argue with an idiot!
If you start with an idiot you will finish with a idiot, so what is the point?

The biggest problem with Ham’s today is, there are too many ex CB’ers that know every thing and get a two letter call to prove it.

The trouble with Ham radio today is the ex CB’ers that have now got two letter call and still behave like they did on CB!. They are the one’s that destroyed CB and now they are working on Ham-radio.
It’s time we report these exCB’ers for there childish rubbish on air, and get them back on CB where they belong.
