Latest Update ~ almost there!

Hi Folks

Just an update as to where we are with the repeater at this moment in time:

  1. Repeater & server now in place at this location (see 'Change of Location' NoV application link at bottom of blog)
  2. Server up and running & registered with ircDDB
  3. External access, through BT HomeHub 4, all sorted & working fine ~ important for 'Backroom' Team 
  4. All ready to 'flick the switch' once the NoV has arrived
Meanwhile, something for you to think about if you currently use GB7FK B or if you intend to use GB7DX B when it is working:

Have you switched on your ircDDB visibility?

Please click on this link for further info    http://ircddb.net/live-vis.html 

This gives the ircDDB team permission to allow your call sign to appear on the Live 'Heard List'. Otherwise your call sign is shown by a series of asterisks ~ which is not helpful to you.

To look at a live representation of those stations using the ircDDB network, please go here: http://ircddb.net/live.htm 

As soon as I have more info to pass on I will let you know!

Best 73 de John
