All -
With the help of N5VGJ, we now have the 442.175 repeater on
echolink.
It is possible that we may have out of the area people connect to
us via this internet link.
All that is required for you to use this (on your computer):
1) a sound card
2) a microphone
3) download and install echolink - www.echolink.org
NOTE: It requires a direct connection to the internet (if you are
dialup, you most likely are directly connected). If you are
behind a router, firewall, or use zone alarms, see the FAQ and
firewall information on the echolink web page.
Once you get this setup, and your call gets authorized, look for the
N5RN-R station and connect to it. You will then be able to use the
440 machine from your computer.
The link announces the call of those who connect to us. So if you
hear someone, key up your radio (or your echolink) and chat with the
visitor.
Be advised, that unless some one has echolinked to the machine, there
won't be anything going over the internet.
Please observe all FCC regulations as they relate to operations on a
repeater and the frequencies in general.
Enjoy.
Best regards,
Glenn
