GB3JB - RV63 - Output 145.7875 MHz - Input 145.1875 MHz - 88.5 Hz ctcss (E) - IO81vc - South Wiltshire - England.

GB3JB is funded solely by donations and provides coverage across South Wiltshire, South Somerset and North Dorset, with specific areas such as the City of Salisbury, Salisbury Plain, the Blackmore Vale and Cranborne Chase being well within its range. Coverage also extends, for fixed stations, across most of central and parts of North Wiltshire, Southern Dorset and West Hampshire, plus parts of North and West Somerset - see link to coverage map.

GB3JB is an analogue voice repeater, with no internet linking, simple intuitive logic and no bells or whistles. The beacon gives callsign and locator. The invitation to transmit is a single dit, and to access the repeater users must continually transmit the 88.5 Hz ctcss tone. There is NO 1750 hz tone burst capability. The system timeout is currently set for 4 minutes.

The simple rules for using GB3JB ....

(1) Only use the power necessary - remember there are other repeaters on the same channel,
(2) If you wish to use another repeater on RV63, please turn off the 88.5 Hz ctcss tone otherwise you will still access JB,
(3) Please wait for the invitation to transmit (a single dit), and always leave a pause - please give others a chance to call-in, and finally .....
(4) Ignore any idots - If you don't hear a callsign, do NOT respond - EVER !

We Need YOUR Kit ....

Hi All,

As you all know, we are always looking for ways to support the GB3JB repeater.

Normally, this takes the form of us asking for you to donate money.

However, this year we are going to be attending various Rallies, and that means we are looking for things to sell, to raise money for GB3JB.

So to all of you, who may not have donated shiny pound coins, etc., how about donating that bit of old kit you have not switched on in years, or that bit you purchased for that project you never started or completed.

PLEASE , please, please, not your junk that no one in there right mind would buy in a month of Sundays; that you can't bring yourself to throw away.

If you have any items of equipment that you would like to donate to us, please let us know, as soon as possible.  Then we can make suitable arrangements for getting it to the Events Team.
