Members are encouraged to promote membership of the group and to support the upkeep and enhancement of club resources. Our thanks must go to those who founded the group and those with the vision and commitment to make the Auckland VHF Group what it is today. Enjoy your visit to this web site.

Meeting   General Meeting Monday, July 13th 2009.  The 23cm Band The “what and how to”!


The 23cm band is under utilised, and yet it has a lot of space to play in. It does have activity, and very few operators appear to realise what activity is on, how easy it is to get on this band and how effective it can be. To over come some of the myths, this meeting is dedicated to the 23cm band, with the assistance of Simon ZL1SWW, and possibly Stephen ZL1TPH and others.

Its one of those practical evenings where what appear to be secrets are revealed to be simple and easily achievable goals with a lot of interesting fun in between.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Data Modes   Data Modes CD.
Doug ZL1AVY advises that a new version of the Branch 66 Data Modes CD will be released in time for the December meeting of Branch 66. This will make an excellent present to give to your ham mates - keep it in mind! It does contain a lot of new programmes and many updates. If you are unable to attend a meeting or live outside Auckland you may contact either Doug ZL1AVY or anyone of our committee members to arrange a copy to be sent out. Please see our Contacts page.
Fire690 Fire

As many have already heard the 690 repeater was destroyed by fire on the 19th of August 2007.  At the general meeting held on the 10th of September 2007 there was a discussion about the future of the repeater and the committee will be investigating the possible relocation of 690. It is not certain at this point if we are able to get the repeater back on the same site.

Update June 7th 2009. Replacement equipment has been purchased from Tait and site negotiations have been completed to have the repeater housed at Puketutu. Antenna and duplex hardware are yet to be purchased.
