Travelling north from Bunbury I have been able to key the repeater as far north as the Pinjarra Road crossing on the Forrest Highway.
Travelling from Bunbury to Greenbushes I can key the repeater to Boyanup, after that nothing.
Travelling south to Busselton, I can key the repeater most of the way down the highway until the heavy bush area just north of Busselton. I could not key the repeater in Busselton town from my vehicle but found I could key the repeater along Chapman Hill Road and at the northern end of the Whicher National Park.
Travelling East to Collie and Boddington, I could key the repeater most places up the Collie hill until three odd kilometres from Welly Dam turnoff, then nothing until the Worsley turnoff. Then nothing to or in Collie. Travelling out of Collie on the Williams road I could only key the repeater once and that was at the top of the big hill after Boys Home Road at Norm Road.
Then nothing all the way to Boddington.

Bunbury Radio club is holding a Fox hunt on 3rd May 2025.
We will kick off from Hay Park (northern Cricket Oval) at 10am. (see maps below)
The Fox will be hidden somewhere in the greater Bunbury area, within 10km of the starting point.
Our foxes work the 2m band so make sure you pack the appropriate gear.
We will monitor the 2m calling frequency (145.500) and all the VK6RBY 2m Repeater before and during the event.
Depending on the time taken for all participants to find the fox, we may get time to reset the fox and have another go.
Bring a packed lunch or buy something from the local takeaways to eat together after the hunt and share some social time with us.
For more information, contact the club by email vk6brc@gmail.com or text/call 0417945025
