Status update
GB3AY is off air with a fault with the repeaters Power Amp
GB3PA is now fully operational in its new location in Clydebank. This is a Yaesu repeater so has no fancy logic, its 103.5hz CTCSS and talk to the repeater there is a small 700ms hang time when you un-key it will only ID its callsign every 15mins and not every time you access it.
