That's what I thought - but when I looked up the aprs.net.au site http://aprs.net.au/general/standard-ssids it gives -1 "Digipeater, or Home Station running a Fill-In Digi" and -3 as "Digipeater".
Not quite enough info for me to differentiate;-)

G'day Ray - all looking good, one final question should the SSID be VK2RPL-1 or -3?
I'm leaning towards -1, but am happy to be corrected before it is written in and sent on it's way;-)

Steve,
83m is 272 ft, close enough to the 300 I guessed.
800m is a tad higher than what SPLAT! (and Google earth) thinks it is but still close enough, especially given the step sizes available for HAAT and Power.
HAAT - Height Above Average Terrain
Pick 0dB gain and the nearest height and you won't be too far off. It's only a guide.

The tech got back to me with the following:
"Antenna Gain is going to be 3db to start with but then unity when we get around to putting the 2m repeater up there , HAAT not
sure what it means but antenna hight is 83m above ground or 883m above sea level"
Sound about right?
