It looks like there is another prolonged tropo event coming starting 17/12/16 for 3 or more days.
Fantastic to hear some great tropo on WR the last few days with stations from Yorkshire,Cambridge,cheshire but to mention a few.The strong tropo is due to continue into monday when the high pressure moves away.
If you are interested in VHF tropo conditions have a look at our coverage page and just above our map is a link to tropo forecasting maps. The repeater is now fully operational.Thanks for your patience over the last few hours.
Please be aware that due to upgrade work on the repeater sunday 2/10/16 there will be disruption to WR from 8am untill the afternoon.
work will start tomorrow on the new kit in preparation for its installation on sunday........fingers crossed.
The new gear is now in the country and awaiting delivery once the import duty has been paid,so we will hopefully be up on site next sunday and fingers crossed get it up and running.
