[FADCA] Remote controller

	I like it. I'm buying one for the bbs/bpq. I will hook it to
	a radio port AND a IP address. So if I'm out of town and the bbs
	goes stupid I (or Bud) hihi can reset it.

Hi All

A while back we were talking about having the ability of remotely
shutting 
down and restarting a switch. The reason that I'm bringing it back up
again 
is to encourage anyone that is making a budget for building a switch to
add 
a Intelligent DTMF Remote Control located at
http://www.nhrc.net/nhrc-remote/  .

bud has used these with no problems and likes them very well. You might 
also want to add them to your voice repeater if you have one. We just
had 
our repeater controller lock up and all that was needed was to turn the 
power off and back on and all worked well. If we had one of these on our

repeater we wouldn't have had to make a site visit to do this. I'm going
to 
get this installed on our repeater so we won't have to go by the site
again 
for a simple power cycle.

I would like to see ALL switch owners have one of these on their
switches. 
We have a home brew one on the Stuart site and I have used it many times

when we had a weird power glitch that locked the computer up. Now when
this 
happens I just get on the port that it is hooked up to and hit the code
and 
it shuts down and starts back up in several minutes.

I have had to drive to the Okeechobee site to do the same thing many
times. 
If we had one of these installed I could just reboot it from the house
and 
we would be back in business.
Please go to  http://www.nhrc.net/nhrc-remote/  and give it some thought

and lets talk about it on the list. I do know that we can get a volume 
discount but I don't remember how much off for how many. I can check
into 
it again if there is a interest..

73, Bill N4XEO
