The
Bromley Repeater Group
is non-committee style, user group which is constantly expanding.
Individuals are volunteers who give their time freely and who
want to assist Tony, G1HIG the repeater keeper, in one way or
another with the upkeep of GB3OK VHF Amateur Radio Voice / EchoLink
Repeater & GB3LK UHF Amateur Radio Voice Repeater covering
London, Essex and North West Kent.
We are a totally independent, non-profit organisation and receive
absolutely no funding from any other source. So far, all
the costs for developing this project, the purchase of the equipment,
the site rental and all peripheral expenses, have been bourne
by the members of the Committee. However, the continuing
success of GB3OK &
GB3LK will depend
on us being able to collect funds from from the Radio Amateurs
that frequent the repeater. To this end we turn to you
for assistance.
Please assist us by making a small donation to the group.
No amount is too small.
All contributors (known as "Supporting Members")
will receive a mention on the Supporting Members page of our
website (with a link to your e-mail and website addresses),
and those making a donation of £10 or
more can have a free redirected e-mail address with the "@gb3ok.com"
extension. It can be your callsign, your name or anything
else you require (but not offensive). NOTE:
Names are limited to 45 characters
and must be created from the character set of A-Z,
a-z, 0-9,
'_' and '-'.
The name cannot contain spaces.
For example, g0abc@gb3ok.com or joebloggs@gb3ok.com
or joe-bloggs@gb3ok.com would all be ok.
About our free e-mail re-direction offer. The way this
works is that we set up an e-mail alias of "yourname@gb3ok.com"
with your own preference in place of the "yourname".
It works exactly like any other e-mail address, except that
mail sent to you under this name is automatically re-directed
to your existing e-mail. The person sending the mail doesn't
know it's been re-directed and you read the e-mail along with
the rest of your mail. However, just like any other e-mail,
we can only have one of each name. Aliases will be issued
on a "first come, first served" basis and we can only
issue one of each name. So! Get in quick before
somebody else gets the name you want.
It's safe too. No mail is actually kept on our server
and there is no way we can read your mail. It's exactly
as it's stated, a re-direction service. Simply CLICK
HERE to view a printable version of our "Supporting
Members" form. Print it out, fill it
in and send it off with your donation. Don't forget to
tell us your existing e-mail (where the new mail will be re-directed
to) and your preference for the new e-mail address. We
will do the rest and you'll be able to start using it straight
away.
We would like to point out that this is a free service and is
still under trial. As such we cannot make any guarantees
as to it's reliability or that it will continue forever.
However, having said that we can see no reason why it should
ever fail or be withdrawn. Your donation should not be
considered a payment for the purchase of this service.
Instead, think of it as our "thank you" to you for
you support.
