VK6RIB (145.575 MHz), the Ham College Information Beacon which broadcasts the news and other Amateur Radio information on a two hour cycle is temporarily off air due to a tech fault. Ham college apologies for any inconvenience to our listeners and will rectify the problem as soon as possible.
This and all other repeaters and their status are listed on the Repeater Page. We also maintain a Beacon Page.
