[InHam] [IndyHamRadio] IRC meeting at Ft. Wayne Hamfest

[Charlie - N9MEW]

This is the follow-up of the Indiana Repeater Council meeting on Saturday.

I have many requests for a repeater that I cannot find a frequency for.  Especially for 2 meter systems.

As a start to find the paper repeaters, we have voted unanamsly to NOT list a repeater in the ARRL directory  for a system that the coordination is too old.  

Indiana requires that all coordination's be updated every two years.  
As a courtesy to the ones that are a little behind, and to give every body a chance to update their coordination, we have decided that If your coordination is 2005 or later, you will be in the published directory.  Next year we will move the data up.
We file the data base with the ARRL about January 1 of each year. 

We are not deleting anything them from the data base at this time.  But this does not mean that we will just let it go.  If we do not hear from you, we will try to contact you.   About this time next year, we will be analyzing the date base and will begin to de-coordinate systems.

I will be going on vacation the day after Christmas for a week or so.  File NOW.

If you submit an application before I leave, and I do not mean December 24, I will fix the data base so that you will be listed.  Depending on how many of you file, It may take a while to complete the paperwork. I will answer all e-mails.

You can file on-line at www.ircinc.org/node/9

If you know of any repeaters that are off the air, please e-mail me.  Keep in mind that people have problems, such as equipment fails, and loss of tower sites.  If this applies to you, let us know.

Splinter frequencies.  This was discussed.  We will space systems 70 to 80 miles from a system that is 10 KHz away.  This is we done only in special circumstances.

There will be other restrictions, such as a non inference clause. and limit modulation. We will also have to get approval from the adjacent states.  I have requested that they adopt such specs.  But they have not approved it yet.

  Attention all Repeater trustees, and all interested in Repeater coordination


  The Indiana Repeater Council will have a meeting at the Ft. Wayne Ham fest on Saturday, November 14, 1009 at  12:15.

  We will be talking about what to do about paper repeaters and the possible use of the splinter frequencies on 2 meters.  There are several 20 kHz spaced frequencies, and it is sometimes possible to place another system in between 2 systems.  What kind of spacing should we use?
