About VK4NGA

My name is Glenn. First licensed in 1979 as VK4NTR. Active until 1983, took long break from the hobby returning in 2015 with call sign VK4NGA. I recently also acquired the call sign of VK4DMR.

I started building and selling MMDVM hotspots early 2019, have sold hundreds of hotspots and Nodes Australia wide plus into New Zealand and Canada.

I now have diversified into PCB design/manufacturing which has culminated into fully assembled AllStar Nodes and AllStar Node kits. Next up I’m manufacturing Simplex and Duplex MMDVM hats.

I’m located in Queensland Australia on the beautiful Sunshine Coast hinterland area. We are surrounded by forestry and nestled in amongst the amazing Glasshouse Mountains (Google it).

November 2017 I bought my first digital radio (Icom ID-4100 D-Star) and started playing with digital voice, which I really enjoy as you’ll always find a station to chat to on the digital modes.

My shack is mostly digital modes, now I run DMR – multiple networks, YSF, D-Star and P25 modes.

I’m usually listening on most of the popular nodes/hubs/talk groups/rooms and reflectors.
