A large number of the regular users on GB3VT are not members of the repeater group.

This repeater like all others is open and free for all licence amateurs to use.

​

But it is not free to keep on air, please support this repeater before it runs out of money and is gone for good.

GB3VT cost £326 to keep on air in 2018

​

This repeater requires internet access on a remote location this is not easy!

​

A special thank you to the site owner who allows these repeaters on his site at a very reasonable cost. Access to the local electricity supply and putting up with people turning up at the weekends to maintain the equipment.
