Friday Feb 13 0505E

In a previous note I miss-typed the call for the Orlando FPAC!  The call for
the Orlando FPAC is

W4PLB-8/9.  Also a likely digi to try from Hamcation is CLR as well as AEOC
and FLORL.

Also, someone changed the mycall of the Seminole County PBBS! Arrrghh!

So the entire note I sent before is corrected as this:

* * *
Hamcation is Friday, Saturday, Sunday

Here is how to get to the Florida Layered Packet network from the Hamcation
site.

You will need a 2M antenna off the ground a few feet.. and 25 watts or more.

Use 145.07 (the Orlando LAN)

To get to the Orlando FPAC switch (located 23 miles north in Deltona),
you'll probably have to use a digi... The most likely one is AEOC, another
is FLORL.

So, a link to the W4PLB-8 node would be

C W4PLB-8  v AEOC
or
C W4PLB-8  v FLORL

Quick connects on the Orlando Switch are

W4PLB-1  N3PPC BBS  SANFORD
W4PLB-2  N3PPC BBS  SANFORD
W4PLB-3  N0IA BBS DELAND
W4PLB-4  N4GMU BBS (temporarily off the air)
W4PLB-5  N4ZKF BBS DAYTONA BEACH
W4PLB-6  N0IA PMBO (TELPAC)

To reach the Seminole County KAM PBBS use

C WB4IMT-1 V <digi>, W4PLB-9,407277

To reach the Volusia County KAM PBBS use

C K4DMH-3 V <digi>, W4PLB-9,386677

Good luck!
