In a meeting today, March 17, 2025, with the Sumter County Director of Emergency Management, Dave Casto, he asked that the EchoLink and AllStar nodes that are connected by linked radios to the KI4DYE (145.490) and KS4EOC (146.925) county-owned repeaters be permanently disconnected. You will no longer be able to access either of these repeaters via their EchoLink and AllStar nodes:

KS4EOC: EchoLink Node: KD8WAA-R (648680), AllStar Node: 53446

KI4DYE: EchoLink Node: KX4LEO-L (297089), AllStar Node: 40487

This DOES NOT affect any other EchoLink or AllStar connections.
