A Very Good Article For both Hams and Non-Hams

 

A Very Good Article For both Hams and Non-Hams

The next time a friend, coworker,? or family member asks about ham radio, ask them to read this article:



I think you will find it to be a very worthwhile read, especially for a non-ham.

N2QOJ-R EchoLink Node, # 185734

 

Here is the schedule for the N2QOJ-R EchoLink Node

The node will be on the default frequency of Usery 1 Repeater at all times except:

- Thursdays at 12 Noon till 12 Midnight - To Support STVN Emcomm Net on Ocotillo/STV Repeater
- Sundays from 12 Noon till 12 Midnight - To Support QCECG Emcomm Net on Ocotillo/STV Repeater

This will change in the future as I get concurrent node resources in place and have them working well independently with no co-location interference.

The ultimate goal is to have both repeaters EchoLink capable 24/7.? Since Usery 1 is the most active, it is the temporary default repeater.

I'll update as it happens.

Regards,

Joe, N2QOJ
