The British Amateur Television Club has launched a new forum for all things to do with ATV. It is envisioned to be an ideal central meeting place for enthusiasts to meet up and swap ideas and information, so why no click on the above to register?

We have recently received the NOV to allow for the use of 2 additional inputs for GB3GG:
This will cater for 3 simultaneous users on 1280Mhz, 2388Mhz and 10.315Ghz.

New logic currently under construction to facilitate the above with additional features such as DTMF menus, multiple camera selection, signal meters and repeater linking via IP
