MB7UBY (currently off air)

 

Due to loss of the original site shared with GB7WF, MB7UBY is currently off air. We would like to put the APRS server back on 144.800 but we need a site that would provide coverage over North Worcestershire & South Shropshire with an internet connection. If you can help then please contact the group.

 

2M APRS Ui-Server

 

Status: First Operational 10th October 2008.

Location: Bewdley, Worcestershire.

Locator: IO82UJ

Frequency:144.800MHz

 

Digi-peater alias: MB7UBY. GBRn-n & WIDEn-n enabled.

Transceiver: Motorola VHF mobile

Antenna: Dual band co-linear shared with GB7WF.

PC: 333MHz 128mb RAM

Software: Ui-View32

 

Not a repeater as such but we were asked by Steve M0BPQ if we could help fill a gap in the APRS network in the North Worcestershire & West Midlands Region.

 

We were happy to help and now with the equipment kindly donated by Steve we have been able to install an APRS Ui-Server above the town of Bewdley in North Worcestershire. The site and the antenna is shared with our 70cm DStar Repeater GB7WF.

 

The VHF/UHF di-plexer was custom built by Cross Country Wireless

 

The site provides good coverage over the region and large parts of the M5 and the Southern section of the M42.
