[MarinTeams] Monday Evening On-Air Practice

[Bill Smith]

Hi Arlene,

I thought I heard you, but you were not keying the repeater.  We will have
to check that Thursday.  You need to set the PL tone, and also turn on the
PL tone.  I think you have the frequency and offset set correctly, since I
could hear 1/2 second of your voice.  But you were not keying the repeater
which is likely something to do with the PL tone settings.

Thank you for the attempt Monday and look forward to seeing you this
Thursday.

Bill,

I wanted to let you know that I was partipating last night. I could hear
everyone quite clearly, except for the interference that others
experienced as well. It appears though that no one could hear me. I
tried to call in numerous times. Each time, when I let off the PTT,
someone else was calling in. Once or twice I might have lost the channel
access to another user, but not every time. I did hear you suggest that
someone trying to get in should look at their PL setting. I did that and
it appears my PL is set ok. We can check that on Thursday. At this point
my conclusion is that I do not have talkback coverage from my location
in Santa Venetia.

It was good to hear so many folks on the net.

Arlene

Hi All,

The Monday Night radio practice was great!  Thanks to all who
participated under somewhat trying conditions.  Actually some
interference is to be expected, and we all worked very well to
accommodate less than ideal communications.

Everyone sounded great and we are moving very quickly to fine tune our
operations, even though there is no manual (yet).  Words don't describe
how well everyone is doing.

Look forward to seeing you Thursday!
