The cluster has been up and running for over 5 years and the network continues to grow, albeit at a slower pace than in previous years. We continue to see 'out of area' access to the cluster on 23575 and people enjoy the wider Brandmeister facilities available to them.
Many thanks to the following people for their continued support during 2020: 2E0KPD G4BJD G4ICU G4JCP G4LVV G6DQN G7JPE G8ILN G8IMN M0XZS ... and a few others who didn't provide callsigns or made anonymous donations via our PayPal MoneyPool. It's been a difficult year for all of us and your help and contributions are appreciated. Thank you!

We have disconnected the static talkgroups on Slot 2 as we found that all the repeaters were 'blocked' when 23580 was in use, preventing other users from using TG 9 or any other Brandmeister talkgroup; most noticeably when the QSOs were either between users 'out or area', both on hotspots, or TG9 (local) would have been more appropriate.
The convention now used across all repeaters in the Cluster is: Slot 1 / Talkgroup 75 linked between all repeaters in the cluster, Slot 2 / Talkgroup 9 for local use and dynamic talkgroups to access the wider Brandmeister network.
