Greetings all,

 

 

 

I am a licensed radio operator who recently acquired a TAIT VHF repeater from a company along with the license (which is now in my name and all paid for under RSM).

 

 

 

I am based in Auckland and I am currently looking for a suitable location to house the repeater. Ideally, I am hoping to find a place that would provide coverage for the North Shore but some coverage of Central Auckland would also be good.

 

 

 

I thought I would reach out to this community to see if any of you might have suggestions or contacts who would be open to hosting the repeater for me. Of course, I am willing to pay for the space and any other expenses involved.

 

 

 

Many thanks

Nzarec/art are probably a good starting point. They're often not far from the commercial ones for an indicator.. (which you can the find the name and see if there is a commercial venture also there)

How Northshore do you need it. Could it be served from the Waitakere Ranges?

Yeah, I think that would be the best place for it.

 

 

 

There's a public CB UHF repeater up there that gets very good coverage of the shore and beyond.
