North Norfolk Coastal Amateur Radio Repeater

Welcome to the GB3NU Website

A New Voice Repeater for the Sheringham And Cromer Area in North Norfolk. From the conception of the idea for this repeater, we have worked to make this repeater accessable via handhelds on 5 watts or less along the North Norfolk Coast, delievering a truly local repeater, whilst providing cover in an area that would otherwise have no amateur radio repeater.

Rx set to 430.8875 Mhz
