I was wondering what the general guidelines are for local conversations when
a system is connected to ref001 port c? We have asked our users NOT to hold
local conversations on the port connected to the reflector unless it is an
emergency but the more I think about the more I'm not sure that is the
Hey Fran,
I suppose folks could set RPT2=NOT USE and keep things local or if it
is a short chat and the reflector is not busy, make the short contact
as it is. Every user can link or un-link at will and it is good to
have some memories for link / unlink and status. Steve NU5D
PS - I may be
Regarding every user can link and unlink, that applies to the K5CTX
system in Temple, TX. I believe the unlink works everywhere, but am not
certain. Steve

Rethinking my previous comment about link/unlink, maybe we have ours setup
to disallow the average user. We don't want everyone linking and unlinking.

You cannot, for the time being, reply to JA7NJN or use one touch. You
would have to put their repeater in the UR. Perhaps UR=/JP7YELA or
/JP7YEMA. I don't know about the dongle users - I suspect until the JA
trust server better coordinates with the US trust server, there will be
a few
This is NOT good!! If we can't reply and they forget to FLUSH as you call
it, we can't stop of their conversation on our system. Maybe the
communication between them and us should not be allowed until the issues are
resolved so we can get back to them easily. This was a big problem his
morning, as
Japanese stations do not use Dplus currently so no Dongle functions will be
recognized.
You must set the call sign of THEIR departure repeater in Japan behind a /
in your radios YOUR field for them to hear you and converse. Then it all
works fine. If working mobile you will find it
you are correct anyone can take a link down but whether a user can establish
links or not is to the admin
and on a case by case basis.

Fran what we are doing here in cumming,GA on KI4SBA is when we do link we use
the lesser used port which in our case in port B to link to the reflector. That

Thanks for the info Ferrell. We also have our port B connected 24x7 but we
don't let our users link or unlink. We actually have a script running that
insures we stay linked.

We went the opposite route. Unless someone gets abusive of it,
everyone's allowed.
We couldn't think up a scenario where
Unlinking on our system does no good. We have a script that runs and the
link will be automatically re-established.
The answer to the why question cannot be answered here.

Fran: The Japanese stations are not linked. Linking is done via Dplus.
They do not have Dplus yet.This will all work out with time. Give it
some time.These stations are putting your repeater module in their
YOUR call field. If you put there repeater module call sign in your
radios

well now there does not appear to be a situation where subscriber stations can

let me point out a case where you might want to allow users to link and unlink.

I don't believe every user can link or unlink. I think they need to
be an
admin. Also, using rtp2=not use only stops them from going out the
gateway.
If someone on another system were to come on the reflector they
wouldn't
know there is a local conversation happening on another connected

You are not alone in that thought. Subscriber has a commercial ring to it.
