The KB8KGU Repeater
Welcome! Here you will find information about the KB8KGU Repeater located in Camdenton, Missouri.
System Information
The repeater is located near the intersection of Highway 54 and Highway 5 in Camdenton. This is an open repeater system available to all licensed amateur radio operators.
The repeater is a Motorola Micor UHF system with a 4 cavity duplexer system. It transmits approximately 40 watts of power to a Diamond 11.5dB gain antenna on top of one of the buildings in Camdenton Square. The antenna is fed with low-loss LMR-400 coax cable. We are fortunate to have one of the highest spots in the county, giving the repeater great coverage for the county.
Internet Linking
The KB8KGU repeater is connected to both IRLP and Echolink. Our IRLP node number is 3232 and our Echolink node number is 96620. The internet link machine is an older AMD PC with IRLP version 3.0 board installed, and feeds into an older Mostar mobile radio for the link. The node runs the EchoIRLP software system to communicate with both IRLP and Echolink. Please see the Internet Linking instruction page for commands to use this feature.
