[FARC] 145.75 w3fdk-9 w3fdk-3 packet

[Eric Gammeter]

Thanks Rolan-  your work on getting the node up and operative are
tremendous!  I managed to qsy to 145.75 and tried a few connects but from my
location at Robinwood Medical facility in HGR I was unable to connect.  Then
I had an issue with trying to connect to myself as I happened to program
both TNC's with my call.  Doesn't work.  Once Jackie put her call into the
TNC Jeff and I were able to keyboard-to-keyboard between Frederick Memorial
Hospital and the Robinwood Medical Facility via wn3R-10 node on 145.77MHz.  

Thanks so much for your input on establishing and operating packet stations-
it is exactly what we need to hear!

73, 
Eric G.

Jeff and all,

Same thing, up on the mountain Phil could not print  but could hear the 
packets coming down but I brought it back down to my qth and  the  145.75 is

now at my house  and Phil
and Kirk connect fine here.

I'll leave it on here at my qth and I think  you should be able to have good

enough coverage to use  it from my qth and I hear some Hagerstown stations 
so
maybe they can get in to it.

Good luck, we have to go out this AM but the 145.75    W3FDK-9 PBBS and 
W3FDK-3 DIGIPEAT will be on from my qth  near Adamstown.

Good luck !!
