The BoIARC VHF/UHF Repeater site
Due to subdivision of the property that had kindly hosted the BoIARC repeater site since the 1980's, the Bay of Islands 675 VHF repeater, 9975 UHF repeater, and National System linking station were closed down and removed in December 2023.
As of late 2024 the BoIARC has found another site about 15km SW of Kerikeri. The Bay of Islands 675 2m VHF repeater (at least) should be installed in the coming months.
6 March 2025: "Bay of islands 675" 2m repeater is now on air from the new site at Hariru Rd, Ohaeawai.
