Interference to VK2RLE 2m FM Repeater
SGARS has been advised of interference to the VK2RLE 2m FM repeater, located at Engadine. Investigation by the Repeater Team indicates the interference is from a carrier which maybe in close proximity to the repeater site. Also the interference is not consistent, possibly due to the carrier drifting in frequency.
Your assistance would be appreciated by monitoring the VK2RLE 2m FM repeater, record the date and time of any instances of interference, is repeater, and report the information using the adjacent form. The more reports received the better chance the team has to locate the source.
