Bath Repeaters Threat Eased

*******  Bath Repeaters Threat Eased   *******

The threat of closedown of the Bath 70cms FM voice repeater GB3UB, the TV repeater GB3UT and the APRS repeater MB7UB seems to have eased a bit. It is still possible that they may have to move to a different location on the University campus but the imminent likelyhood of the equipment being found in a skip seems to have passed.

GB3UB has been operational since 1975, GB3UT and MB7UB not quite so long but if the NoVs are surrendered it is extremely unlikely they will be re-issued even if a site is subsequently found so it is vital to keep them operational if they are to continue.
