Located on North Range Road which traverses the crest of the Tararua Ranges is a radio repeater station managed by the Manawatū Amateur Radio Society, Branch 20. On this site they have a webcam which provides a view of the ranges and city of Palmerston North.
Amateur (ham) radio is a non-commercial hobby and communication service. Licensed operators use designated radio frequencies to talk locally and globally without using the internet or cell networks. It is vital for emergency response. This repeater site on North Range Road offers connection and coverage for those radio enthusiasts to communicate with each other across the wider Manawatū and Tararua.
Amateur radio provides a vital service during natural disasters and it supports emergency communications through AREC for civil defence and search-and-rescue operations.
