Here we have a few Branch photos from the Past.
The first lot of photos are from the original ZL2KB repeater shack, estimated to have taken around the late 70s. Known back, it was known as ‘Channel B’, and the shack relied on Wind and Hydro generators to keep things on the air. In the first picture, we have the original Repeater Trustees (Len ZL2TFP on the left, and Guy ZL2JY on the right), followed by some photos looking over Kapiti, and then photos of the generator setup. Also shown is the “shovel crew” digging and laying the foundations of the current shack.
The next lot of photos are general Branch photos from the past, including an old ZL2KB QSO card and the old plans to move the clubroom building to the current site, and one very rare photo of Len and Steve J fixing an antenna on the old McLean Street clubrooms (taken circa late 70s / early 80s).
Special Thanks goes to Steve ZL2KG for the photos and memories!
