- The first
meeting for
the year, with a demonstration on using the Digital Amateur Television Repeater from your shack, with Mick VK2CH.
The VK3RTV digital TV repeater is now operational and can be received using standard DVB-T TV's or Set Top Boxes.
Transmitting TV pictures to the repeater is not all that difficult
either, using conventional analog TV modulators and PAs, or with new
Digital TV modules.

room
dedicated to amateur
radio education and communications activities. The large
hall
and surrounding grounds open up a range of activities
including radio classes,
promotion of amateur radio, and collaboration with the
community.

team for Communications as part of the tenure.This is one of Banyule Council's halls with a large seating capacity, a modern kitchen with catering facilities, and new gas heating and evaporative cooling systems.
