then he abuses everyone that does get a chance to talk, these are his details and
posts from other CHN 7 Repeater (MEL07) CB Radio users, plus all the reasons why the repeater
was taken off-air, this "snappa" guy IS the reason why the MEL07 repeater was taken off-air
due to all the abuse he gives everyone. He gets drunk and abuses people on there, he's the drunk!
His Girlfriend gets on there and does the samething, abuses everyone, gives out other peoples
home addresses, fullnames, phone numbers and also gives death threats.

You must be refering to snapper / snappa
Lives in Melton and his address is announced regularly over the air.
His usenet posts also come from Melton IP's.  Apparently he's part
German part aboriginal and comes from Sydney where he reckons he also
caused major havoc and had numerous intervention orders placed against
him.

He talks about his rig occasionally.  Apparently it's a borrowed 208h
with a 140W linear amp and a rojone.  Also has a powerful loop yagi
apparently.  The only person I've ever heard to make his signal into
MEL07 even squeal is VK3AAZ and that was from twice the distance.


In the 6 months He's been abusing MEL07 the CB airwaves have cleared
of reasonable dialog and reasonable people.  It is nauseating
listening to him go over his limited repertoire again and again.


Unfortunately there seems to be nothing anyone can do about it and
people are forced to use the "off" feature of their radio's.

****** 3/05/09 - MEL07 Off the Air ******

Channel 7 repeater MEL07 located in Melbourne's West, Has been damaged by excessive misuse of the equipment.

UHFCB.com.au Techs are investigating the exact cause of the equipment failure which is unknown at this time, but is believed to be due to a handful of base stations running illegal power and constantly transmitting in power games.

Unfortunately everyone loses when these games take place, not only are repeaters damaged but they can remain out of service for extended periods of time leaving communities without any viable free communication.



===================================================



****** 17/05/09 - Melbourne Repeater Return to Service ******

Melbourne's most popular repeater were turned back on this week MEL07 Channel 7.

The repeater was removed from service recently due to abuse and interference problems.

Channel 7 (MEL07) damaged equipment has been partially repaired but will need to undergo additional repairs to fix the problem completely cause by power wars on the channel over the last few months. Hopefully the problems have been resolved and the power games will stop, to prevent any additional damage to the equipment.




===================================================




****** 15/07/09 - Abuse of repeaters ******

MEL07 has been switched off due to the repeated abuse and disrespect of not only the equipment, but other users of the repeater

Those in Melbourne will most likely know about the incidents that are taking place on MEL07 to make this drastic action nessasary and will not return to service until the all issues are resolved.




===================================================




****** 17/2/10 - Another Blow for Melbourne users ******

It seems that the final nail may be in the coffin for popular Melbourne repeater MEL07. Equipment located at the Pentland Hills is being removed today for another series of repairs due to the relentless abuse of a handful of users, A committee spokesperson told UHF CB Australia today he was "Unsure if the service will ever return to the air"

This popular repeater  which has extensive coverage of the Melbourne CBD has been the target of abuse by users for over 12 months and the group responsible for MEL07 as well as other repeater across Victoria say "We are tired of having to spend our time and money to keep repeaters like MEL07 on the air for people to abuse, The lack of respect and understanding on what is involved with providing repeaters, We believe is a contributing factor"

The ever increasing costs of repairs to MEL07 far outweighs the costs involved with all other repeaters that the group are responsible for put together, Which leaves one question to be answered.

Why is this repeater so different?

We all hope that MEL07 can return to the air again soon but with no incentives, and continuing abuse of the equipment by a handful of operators, We can see no immediate future for this repeater while theses actions continue.



===================================================




****** 25/2/10 - Repeater Trial in Place ******

The troubled channel 7 repeater located in the Pentland Hills (MEL07) returned to service today on a temporary trial. A committee spokesperson said "We don't want to turn these services off, But if the abuse of the equipment that has taken place over the last 12 months continues we will have no choice" the spokesperson also said "The money we have used to keep MEL07 on the air recently has prevented other repeaters from being funded, meaning there are now fewer repeaters available to Melbourne UHF CB users than planned"

It didn't take long for users to break the silence once MEL07 was turned back on late this morning and hopefully it is here to stay.
