PLEASE BE MINDFUL OF THE DUTY CYCLE OF THE EQUIPMENT. PLEASE DO NOT OVERHEAT THE EQUIPMENT. (Note: the local transmitter is on whenever you are hearing audio from the IRLP system.) NOTE: Generally it is NOT a good idea to ask for QSL cards for contacts with IRLP.

2004.0909 Operating Guide for K7CSO IRLP Node 3879145.610 MHz - 146.2 Hz tone required The IRLP node is open for use by any licensed Ham within its coverage area. |
Operating Etiquette| Identify | Identify your station before bringing up a link and after taking down a link.IDs are required with any control commands. | | Slow down | IRLP is not as fast as simplex or local repeater contacts, therefore you must key your transmitter and wait for a moment before speaking. Otherwise the beginning of your transmission will not be heard. | Pause Pause Pause | Pause between transmissions! especially on Reflectors. Many repeaters run half duplex links to their IRLP node, therefore they can only disconnect between transmissions. Please wait for our courtesy tones. | | Reflector? | IRLP nodes support only a single connection to another node or "Reflector." Reflectors support many incoming connections. Every node connected to the same reflector talks to every other node connected, i.e. a conference bridge type service. All reflector node numbers begin with 9. New operators should connect to 9200 or 9250 and call for a contact. | Codes on Node 3879 - K7CSO| Disconnect | Dial 73 | | Query current node status | Dial 3879 or 00 | | Repeat last Call Waiting announcement | Dial *69 or 387969 | | Echo test | Dial Node 9990 | Control Operators on Node 3879 - K7CSO| Control Operators | K7CSO - Mike Jex AE7RS - Rick Stirling KD7RJQ - Randy Shepard | | Contact Information | k7cso "at" arrl "dot" net | | | | |
