[HCARC] FW: SYSTEM FUSION NET

[Bill Tynan]

Hi HCARC:

 

Greg, N5XO is, as you can see, is very enthusiastic about this Fusion
business. He has been spending his own money to buy repeaters for
installation around the area. I don't know if he would be willing to install
one at our site here in Kerrville or not, or if he would want some help from
our club. I also don't know if the Club would want to put up some money for
all or part of the cost of a Fusion repeater.

 

Something to think about.

 

I really don't know the advantages of Fusion over D-Star or why we would
want or need either. Again, that's something to think about.

 

Just thought I would pass it along.

 

73,

 

Bill Tynan, W3XO/5

Good morning ladies and gentleman...

 

                        Unless you have been buried in a snow drift some
place for the past couple of years, you have most likely heard about the new
Yaesu System Fusion. There have been some great articles and reviews in both
QST and CQ Magazines over the past 6 months and the Internet is filled with
a wealth of information and reviews of the new System Fusion and the
products that support it.

 

Myself and the Unusual Suspects were blessed to been selected as part of the
original Yaesu Fusion BETA Team and as such we were able to upgrade our
443.025 Repeater to a new Yaesu System Fusion Repeater back in early March
of 2014 and have been working {and playing} with the Fusion Radio' s and
System for some time before everything entered into the general public.

 

We have bought into the System Fusion Project so deeply that we have
purchased 3 additional repeaters and are in the process of building a linked
network of repeaters that will be offering Amateur Radio Operators with a
continuous communication system {Analog or Digital} through out the region. 

 

We are hoping that our enthusiasm is infectious and that the Unusual
Suspects can play a major roll in promoting this exciting new mode of
operating for not only our local region but Central Texas. 

 

Over the past month I have seen signs that many Hams are picking up Fusion
Radio's in one form or another, and that the excitement and energy is
increasing, or repeater activity is seeing more and more increased Digital
Activity.

 

With our strong lead in this new technology, the Unusual Suspects intend on
taking the lead in promoting and putting to use this new technology. With
this in mind we are very excited to inform everyone of an all new net that
will be starting this evening.

 

 

EVERY TUESDAY EVENING AT 7:PM

ON 443.025 {GROUP MODE}

 

THE UNUSUAL SUSPECTS PRESENT THE

We intend on making the most of this technology and so we will be checking
into this net in a totally new fashion. 

 

To join the Fusion Net this evening, please put your radio in Group mode.
This will display your call sign for the Net Control Operator to log
everyone in and allow everyone to see who is on the net.

 

This net will be focusing on the technology

 

We will be sending out over the repeater several TEXT reminders today for
