GB3OR was setup after a group of Radio Amateurs in north wales found a lack of repeaters in the region,it was decided to start a 70 cms repeater after many hours and weeks of hard work both in finding a suitable site , NOV’s , equipment a working party was setup to install this repeater.

GB3OR was officially switched on at 12:00hrs on Tuesday the 9th of February 2021 by John Pritchard MW0JWP (repeater keeper) and Ted Pierce MW6ADF.

Some 3 years later after finding the 70cm repeater was hugely popular with radio hams it was decided a 2 metre repeater was needed as the previous one had many problems and was off air for a long time eventually going off air , the group decided once again to step in and install a second repeater this time on 2 metres although in its early days yet there is still some tweaks to do but GB3OG is running giving a great response to many radio hams now that north wales has a choice of 2 very strong repeaters for everyone to use freely without being asked for donations etc.

GB3OG was officially switched one at 13:00hrs on 11th March 2024 By John Pritchard MW0JWP & Ted MW6ADF, and the team who helped on the day.
