Isaacs Rideg IRLP/echolink restored / May GM reminder
Good evening all, a couple of quick notices:
Firstly, a big thanks to Carl VK1KCM and Phil VK1PL for getting the IRLP and Echolink systems working again on the Isaacs Ridge 70cm repeater. The Pi controlling the systems experienced a total failure of the SD card, so Carl rebuilt the Pi and upgraded the system software before Carl and Phil attended the repeater site this afternoon to reinstall the Pi. Both IRLP and Echolink appear to be working again, any issues, please let the committee know.
Secondly – the May General meeting is this coming Wednesday – details as per below.
General Meeting – Wednesday 27th May 2026
The month’s General Meeting presentation will be provided by Carl (VK1KCM) on Digital Voice Modes. This will be an introduction and overview on most of the more common digital voice modes such as D-Star, DMR, YSF and NXDN. It will also cover hotspots, what they are and how to use them.
- As per usual, Pizza, Coffee, Tea and biscuits will be available. A slight change to our normal procedures will be the introduction of a sign-in sheet (where you can mark if you are interested in Pizza or not) so please help us by checking in upon arrival. This will reduce the time taken to order Pizza for those that are interested.
- Doors open at 6.30pm
