 MB7IIP 2 Metre FM Voip Simplex Echo-IRLP Gateway - Ipswich 

MB7IIP is the pride and joy of Keith Handscombe (G7DNT). While strictly not a repeater this excellent system allows access to numerous worldwide repeaters and nodes in virtually every county. Situated in the West of Ipswich this gateway has excellent coverage across East Suffolk and East Essex. By utilising a CTCSS accessed simplex frequency it is possible for radio amateurs to communicate across the globe from just their handheld transceiver.
