Location/QTH

The repeater is located in a truly special place in north-west Latvia, not far from Dundaga, on elevated ground within Slītere National Park. The installation is mounted on Šlīteres Lighthouse (Šlīteres bakas), which was built in 1849. The lighthouse is located approximately 5 km from the sea, at an elevation of around 80 metres above sea level. The antenna itself is approximately 105 metres above sea level. The lighthouse is no longer in active use, allowing us to use this unique location for our amateur radio repeater. The repeater's coverage area includes parts of northern Kurzeme, as well as the sea area between Ventspils and Roja, including the Irbe Strait.
