Folks,
Just a heads up that the KL7AIR repeater on Elmendorf AFB is now linked via
Echo Link, using Voice over Internet Protocol technology.
The KL7AIR repeater frequency is 146.67 (-), with a 107.2 Hz subaudible
tone.
Rick/KL0NE has graciously offered to park his Echo Link-interfaced base
station on the base repeater frequency, attempting to breathe new life into
a little-used repeater.
While the link will not be hot all the time to a specific location, the link
will enable Echo Link users all over the world to connect to it.
Conversely, users of the repeater, with the appropriate codes, can dial up
distant end stations, links, repeaters, etc. This setup is similar to
Dave/KL7M's repeater that was on 147.21 at the time I left last October.
If you have other questions about how Echo Link works, you can go to their
site at www.echolink.org. They give a good explanation in easy to
understand terms.
