• hello

    From ALAN BECK@1:123/140 to ALL on Wednesday, March 08, 2017 09:01:28
    Hi Guys,

    I thought I might say hello.

    MY call is VY2XU and I am from PEI in Canada.

    I am active on HF, some digital and mostly voice.

    Right now our packet system is down, so I am stuck.

    I also run an echolink simplex node and am updating that with my new "XU"
    call.

    I have a lot of stuff to change.

    Best 73,

    Alan

    MY call is VY2XU and I am from PEI in Canada.

    My call is N0KCK and my QTH is Anoka, MN.

    I am active on HF, some digital and mostly voice.

    Hi Guys,

    I thought I might say hello.

    VE5XEF is me.



    I am active on HF, some digital and mostly voice.


    No HF here, I have an HF rig, but no antenna installed. I am quite active on digital, mostly D-STAR, but some C4FM, DMR, and echolink . For D-STAR, I can usually be found on XRF005B.




    Right now our packet system is down, so I am stuck.

    I also run an echolink simplex node and am updating that with my new
    "XU"
    call.

    I have a lot of stuff to change.

    Best 73,


    and 73's to you as well.

    Hello back to you.

    MY call is VY2XU and I am from PEI in Canada.

    My call is N0KCK and my QTH is Anoka, MN.

    I'm VK3JED, also hold VK3IRL. QTH is Bendigo, which is right in the middle of the state of Victoria, Australia (about 10km from the geographic centre of Victoria).

    I am active on HF, some digital and mostly voice.

    I do as much HF as I can but am mainly on 2m locally.

    I too get on Echolink occasionally here.

    These days, I'm mostly active locally, though I do have Echolink and IRLP capability, with some D-STAR as well. I have a DMR radio, but no infrastructure in this area.

    In case you have not looked it up, it is on the east coast, just a few KM from the coast of New Brunswick. There is now a bridge connecting it to the mainland. There is a web cam but the link does not seem to be working at the moment. Then there is this link with a picture

    Hey Alan! I'm KM4UXV - I have my General, but don't
    have an HF rig yet. I am 2m/440 mobile from mine or
    my wife's truck. :-) Mostly just local repeaters or
    repeaters in areas I travel through.

    I've used echolink some, but prefer using the radio
    :-)

    We have plenty of repeaters in the Boston area, so I can even enjoy
    being a handheld around.

    Pretty sure that you are familiar with this resource . http://www.repeaterbook.com

    I wonder if any of you guys are doing/interested in FidoNet over radio packet which seems to be a good merge of both worlds, the offline textmode FidoNet
    and 1200/2400/9600 AX.25 ham radio packet.

    That's one thing I've not been too successful with - an HT... All
    the repeaters are just too far away.

    If the band opens, I can use one with an external antenna to hit
    ONE of the repeaters, but that's it. With my mobile, though, I can
    hit a long way off!

    Pretty sure that you are familiar with this resource . http://www.repeaterbook.com

    Oh yeah - and I use that to program in repeaters for areas I'm going
    to be traveling throuh too.

    I don't have a way of using a computer with radio right now.
