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: https://thecitizen.com/2024/01/29/if-the-grid-goes-down-amateur-ham-radio-works-when-all-else-fails/ 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
