     The Group's analogue TV repeater GB3KT (original callsign) was closed down in 2017 after coming up to nearly 30 years service. At one time the KTG boasted a membership in excess of 50 and is greatly missed by those still around who remember the 'good old days'.

      Photo: The repeater shortly before it was taken off the air and located on the North Downs to the north of Lenham village in Kent.

      We are keen to keep the Group going, all be it informally. Anybody interested in getting involved please contact us via the link above. A digital drive source may be available (NoVs are not available for FM repeaters), as well as logic, analogue receiver and antenna. If there was sufficient interest and a suitable site was found, GB3KT callsign could be re-applied for with an NoV. The proposed GB3DK repeater at Stelling Minnis, Kent, didn't go ahead, but is now operational in the London area on 9cm.

      FM mode (or AM mode on 70cm), as opposed to digital, have always been the preferred methods of modulation by the Kent Television Group and this is still the case. There are currently occasional skeds operating in Kent in the 70cm band, and 23cm, 13cm, 6cm bands using FM-TV.

     Like aerials? - We do!

      Room for anymore? Spotted on the roof of a block of flats in Bognor Regis, West Sussex.
