Inner City Brisbane now has great DSTAR coverage thanks to the new UHF DSTAR repeater VK4RSE.

See SEQRA website here: https://www.seqra.au/ for more detailed site information.

Located in the heart of Brisbane City and installed on top of the Aurora Tower, Corner Wharf and Queen St, Brisbane CBD. Dashboard link here http://www.vk4rse.seqra.au/

Frequency is 439.800MHz -7MHz offset

RPT1 – VK4RSE B, RPT2 – VK4RSE G

This repeater is linked to reflector XLX014_B. Users can link to other reflectors. The time out is 15 minutes. The Knobby DSTAR repeater near Ipswich VK4RBX ( 146.7875MHz -600KHz ) is currently also linked to the same reflector.

DTMF tones work with this repeater as it runs Pi Star.

DMTF

Press PTT and if you press 0 it will tell you what reflector you are connected to

Press # this will unlink you from your current reflector.
To connect to new reflector for example REF001c
Press PTT and then press *1C
And for say REF030C *30C
For XLX Reflectors start with A
Say XLX014B=A14B
You do need to have the CQCQCQ for this to work

Many thanks for the time and effort put in by the volunteers that made this repeater happen.
