I hold an Australian Amateur Radio Standard License and my callsign is VK2VMS. For details of this license, see Wireless Institute of Australia.

My cheapo Wouxun KG-UV8D dual band VHF/UHF transceiver I bought from radioddity.



The Waverley Amateur Radio Society radio net is open Monday night 8-9pm on the VK2RBV 70cm repeater (438.1125MHz offset -5.4MHz CTCSS 91.5Hz)

WARS repeater 438.1125Mhz
Sydney Departures N&E 123.00Mhz
Sydney Airport C-ATIS on 126.25Mhz

Internal RG58 50 ohm antenna feed via ventilation grill. Living in a unit is a hassle when in comes to amateur radio reception.



External Nagoya VHF/UHF hi-gain quarter-wave vertical antenna. Not an ideal orientation but best one can do without getting body corporate permision(unlikely) to drill into bricks and mount external aerial.
