    Further Info
    The Gateway is a local node linked to the global WIRES-X Network and is a point of entry for any ham in range offering long reach connectivity to other WIRES-X gateways/repeaters in the UK and beyond

    It is a simplex system (Tx/Rx on the same frequency) offering only one service; in this case WIRES-X via C4FM (ie no analogue voice).

    As per most licensed gateways, it is relatively low power. If you have issues connecting please contact David M1DOZ who will be happy to assist.
