Just been having a tune around the 2m amateur radio band, and stumbled across a new repeater that started operation today.

GB3EA, operated by the South Anglia Repeater Group, is based in Wickhambrook, Suffolk and is intended to cover much of Suffolk and the surrounding counties. According to the coverage projection map, a good signal should be receivable from Kings Lynn in the North of it's coverage down to Braintree in the South with decreasing coverage to the North and South of those areas.

Here in ###########, the repeater is end stop on the signal meter although I haven't tried to access it yet. I dare say I'll give it a go at sometime in the near future. For reference here are the details needed to access it:
  • Input: 145.0875MHz
  • Output: 145.6875MHz
  • CTCSS: 110.9Hz

A blog is available with articles on setting up this repeater which should be a good read for those interested in this sort of thing.
