The repeater can be connected to other systems, e.g. HUBNet, CQ UK etc by using the Wires-X menu on Yaesu Fusion radios. It will return to the North West Fusion Group after a period of inactivity. Please don’t move the repeater if it is currently in use. Also, importantly, if you move the repeater – make a call!
Furthermore, the C4FM Voice Wide (Victor Whiskey) full rate mode is supported.
GB7YZ is slaved to GB7DH as master so access to Wires-X is possible through both repeaters.
