I think this is the issue I’m having with mine, barely holds a connection with the whip antenna as a result.
I might order one of those replacement parts and see how I go at trying a repair (bearing in mind I am not at all electronically-minded). It’s got to be cheaper than ordering a whole new radio.
I did get 103.5 fade up with the Shrieking Cockatoo (Jimmy Barnes), probably As involved. There is a tutorial on YT that explains how to set up a node.
Great to see so many local webservers up and running. The TEF radios are a good entry point, and probably even good enough if you’re only wanting to run the server for a few hours here and there.
For something more permanent (and frees up your portable radio to be used as a portable radio), the TEF6686 modules can be found on AliExpress for around $25.
Arduino Nano clones on AliExpress or eBay for around $5-8.
And a computer running Windows, or a (old) laptop, or for even lower power consumption, a Raspberry Pi running Linux.
Unfortunately not working this morning - there is some enhancement about in SEQ - Breeze/Rebel WB into Brisbane; Crow FM etc. Might have been interesting.
Again thanks to the RDS list, I also updated some entries from my own scans I did late last year, and added the relevant PI codes to network sites that are unknown at least as a placeholder. Base data source is the NZ Radio Spectrum Management data.
Awesome! It’s a fantastic remote site and I noted some new features added, probably late this past week.
Also for those accessing TEF remote sites there’s now another Melbourne based remotely accessible TEF based in the Williamstown region of Melbourne.
One now needs to zoom into the Melbourne area from the map to independently access either TEF site.
