[HCARC] Kerrville IRLP

[Fred Gilmore]

Kerrville IRLP node 7779 is back on the air 24/7 as of today. Frequency 
is 147.57 with a 162.2 tone instead of the DCS 073 code.  I did this in 
case we ever have a case where we need to connect it to the repeater due 
to some emergency.  That way no reprogramming would be necessary, all 
that would have to be done is change the channel here in the shack.  
Feel free to use it anytime if you can reach my location on simplex.  
There are several IRLP nets you can join if you want.  See 
http://irlp.net and go to the net info for more details.  Just touch 
tone in the node number you want to bring up, and when your done touch 
tone 73 to take it down.  For the time being I have disabled the time 
out, so when you connect to a node, it will stay until either 
disconnected from the far end, or some one takes it down here. IRLP 
differs from echolink in that it is radio in and radio out.

The other node (7788) has been transferred to another location, and 
should be back on the air in the next few weeks or so.  I do not know 
the frequency or tone access code at this time.

Spread the word and have fun with IRLP Ham Radio.
