LOCAL ECHOLINK GATEWAY

Terry,G0TMX has provided us with a local gateway on 434.475MHz. You will need a 110.9Hz tone and DTMF tones.

It is only available during certain times at present.

I'm off to reprogram my eproms!

"Terry, G0TMX, has set up an Echolink Gateway serving the Bury St
Edmunds area on 434.475Mhz. It requires no more than a DTMF tone
pad/microphone and a UHF Tx with 110.9Hz enabled to use the link. It can
allow RF users the opportunity to communicate over the entire globe with
the use of a low power 70cm transceiver. The NoV granted for this
gateway stipulates attended operation only, but if there is sufficient
interest, Terry has said he will maximise the times when the link is
available for people to use.
