Here's some INFORMATION about the UK FM Group (Western). The website is designed to be used by Radio Amateurs as a gateway to information we consider to be of use to them.

Our repeaters are located in

Cheshire, Lancashire, Liverpool, North Wales and Staffordshire.

Please be patient when maps are downloading, some are large files.



UK FM Group (Western) was founded on 19th March 1975 and its first repeater, GB3MP, was licensed on 1st April 1976

From a group with
1 repeater, it has grown into the largest repeater group in the UK with 19 repeaters on 4 bands.

The GB3LL repeater was the first 70cm repeater on the air in Wales.

The network is planned, maintained & operated by the Group without any financial help from the RSGB or any other organisation.
