The AREG IRLP node 6214 via VK5RSB 70cm is now back on air and available for general use.
The IRLP nodes “new” computer is now a Raspberry Pi 2, with modifications to the IRLP board to allow for operation on 3 volts as is used by the Raspberry Pi.
During both the morning and afternoon drive times, Monday to Friday, the node 6214 will be off line. It is available all the time Saturday and Sundays.
Weekday morning:
- off at 07:00am
- on at 09:30am
Weekday afternoon:
- off at 3:00pm
- on at 7:00pm
Access for IRLP operation still requires the current issued access code.
(details may be found at https://www.areg.org.au/activities/irlp-node-6214)
DTMF “0” is the only “free” access to advise the status of the IRLP linking.
I will write up a blog report with photos for the AREG web pages in due course.
Feedback on the IRLP operations is most welcome, might need to make some level adjustments???
