Sunday, 10-Jan-10 23:48:49 GMTThanks to G4RKY for is new node.
The receiver is located on a shared commercial site, along with the GB3ZY and GB3ZB amateur repeaters.
The receiver is currently on a temporary antenna, when the weather improves a discone will be fed with LDF2-50
feeder and will be about 20ft AGL.
The site is located about 5 miles SW of Bristol City Centre on Dundry Hill.

Wednesday, 13-Jan-10 19:12:46 GMTFixed now - had to restart the onsite server - for some reason the radio server service had stopped and would not restart. I tried a manual restart of the service but no luck.
A shutdown and reboot fixed it and now listening to 119.725MHz that you were listening to before it quit. Seems quite busy!
Regards,
Matt
