Another minor thought is that Bulls Head was suggested as a possible/useful
beacon site so freq allocations shouldn't exclude transmitters on 144.410,
432.410 and 1296.410 (without needing the jam factory!)

Hi Phil, and everyone else,
Thanks for the info regarding the APRS structure.
I've no idea what's happening regarding "Standard" packet, whatever
standard packet is these days,1200, 4800 or 9600 baud. However, 144.800 MHz
will not co-site with 145.175 MHz without more cans than a jam factory so
that rules out Black Mountain Tower, even if our benefactor allows us to
put yet another installation there. We did seek permission didn't we?
That only leaves Bulls Head or Black Hill if we are to use existing
Divisional sites. Bulls Head is easy access but has some licencing issues
to resolve whereas Black Hill will require some delicate negotiations. We
may have a trump card to play in any negotiations for Black Hill in that I
believe the packet people at Tid. are desirous of a packet installation on
the Hill. It may be plausible to negotiate to co-site the LIPD spectrum
439.550 / 434.550 MHz repeater with the 144.800 MHz unit which would make
for a nice arrangement. The only ongoing problem with Black Hill is site
access for maintenance purposes. Bulls Head wins hands down here. My vote
would be to get a licence for Bulls Head and stick everything there.
Any body else have any thoughts on the matter?
Regards,
Paul.

Paul, (and others)
as far as I can make out, this is what will be happening APRS wise.....
Mt Ginini will become the WIDE (need VK1RGI Licence to have "145.1750000
MHz 16K0F2D" added
(and Remove.... 144.8000000 MHz - 16K0F2D, 439.5500000 MHz - 16K0F2D,
434.5500000 MHz - 16K0F2D ?)
Black Mountain will become a RELAY (no additions needed for Licence as
APRS is already licensed)
I am not sure what is to happen with "Standard" packet, there is some talk
of it going to Black Mountain, and some of it going to Bulls Head !
If going to Bulls Head then there are licensing issues (As we don't
actually have a licence for Bulls Head, only for the "Portable" WICEN
repeater !), and if at Black Mountain there are antenna combiner issues !
Can anyone tell me what we are doing with Packet so the licensing side can
be commenced ?
cheers....
Phil.

When the new Wide goes into Ginnini, will VK1RBM stay as a wide or will
it be changed to a relay?
