You can set it up to only accept connection from the other machine. 73 AC0Y IRLP boxes can do this also and the scripts would be really easy to modify to provide a full-time point-to-point link. (I don't think anyone's ever published the modifications necessary for a full-time link, but the code is there to see, and modify - unlike EchoLink. Many folks do run semi-permanent links with the notimeout option set and they stay connected for days and days and days and others have timed scripts that run to reconnect them to other nodes if their system sits idle for a certain period of time. It's amazingly flexible if you have some idea of what you're doing. Most don't. The downside if that your machine will not do the 3AM system software update if it's connected at 3AM, so the smarter folks have built scripts that tear down the connection after 3AM and force updates. It's all pretty simple, really.) You can also do the automatic redial on a dial-up ISP connection (or like I did, back to my house when I needed an IP address 40 miles away and leave it up all weekend for a demo -- I just set up my own little dial up ISP in the basement on the second phone line for the weekend on the other Linux box. Could'a done it with Winderz also with their Dial-Up server stuff... all real easy to do. Hooked a small UHF repeater to an old clunker Pentum-I in my hotel room and had a linked repeater for the IRLP talk/demo at the Rocky Mtn. ARRL Convention last summer. Worked fine, looked at the logs later and found that the modem line had dropped three times, it had dialed itself back up and kept right on running. Although, I disagree with Coy only on one item -- I don't think either EchoLink or IRLP will be REAL happy on all but the very fastest of 486's. (DX2/66) It'd be better to grab a $15 Pentium-I or a $35 Pentium-II machine from a used computer shop. I've had one of those running now with IRLP for two years, only reboots have been power outages ('cause I'm too cheap to put a second UPS out where that box is - my garage). -- Nate Duehr, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - WY0X Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] IRLP TYPE BOARD LOOKING
You might look into the commercial implementation of IRLP. http://www.irlp.net/introduction.html It's point to point, IP based and uses embedded hardware instead of standard PC's. All of these systems including the NXU-2 boxes you mentioned contain a computer of some sort. I would stay away from the 486/echolink proposal though, way too much administration, how would you like to reboot your link everytime microsoft releases a patch.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] IRLP TYPE BOARD LOOKING
can pass it reliably enough. I have a couple of off brand boxes like the multitechs that were $150 each. Net2Phone has a 2 port unit that would require an account with them but, it would not cost to call from unit to unit. It is $200 ea. here. Pretty similar to a Cisco ata186. Our club is trying to link a couple of repeaters using Cisco ata186's. Not sure how progess is going with it. The difficulty I see is passing PTT/COS over a plain voice connection and having the VoIP hardware automatically connect and reconnect without user intervention.

Hi All, Does anyone have a couple of UHF (suitable for 430Mhz) duplexers surplus to requirements, and are willing to sell?? These are for a full duplex link at 9Mhz spacing on RX/TX Please bare in mind the cost for postage as I will require them to be mailed to New Zealand. Also I am looking for a Doug Hall radio voter (4 ch). 2nd hand would be okay. Any information, and pricing please e-mail me directly to keep the group free. Regards Kevin, ZL1UDD.

[Repeater-Builder] Link Receivers and LDG RVS-8
Hi Everybody! I have a couple of our Club members that want to experiment with some linking and the RVS-8 voter. They want to play with some cross-banding radios to a few link receivers and then thevoter. After a long discussion I came up with a few questions that I want to ask the group: 1. Are there any group of radios that make better link receivers than others? There are lots of surplus rock bound UHF Moto radios out here, (Moxy, Maxar, Flexar) For those of you that have played with these, any pro's and con's? Conversion? COR? PL decode, stripping PL and encoding? Cystal/Channel Element cost? Flat Audio? Interfacing with voters? 2. I've converted my fair share of Micor's and Mastr II's over the years. Is there any benefit in using these radios over those other radios or would I be better off playing with say, some Spectra Tac receivers? The last thing I want to do is reinvent the wheel! The group's expertise is a good thing! I personally like a stand alone repeater, but the guys want to experiment, so I want to point them in the right direction, so any thoughts would be great!
