Have been listening to these guys for a while. Monday to Friday between about 9.00 - 18.00 hrs.
165.700 MHz base
170.500 MHz mobile
Best to listen on the base/repeater frequency 165.700 MHz.
Can make interesting listening at times, with crashes, punctures, arguments etc. Should be able to be heard over a large area as the mast is located north of Cardiff, above Lisvane on the ridge between Cardiff and Caerphilly.
