*********************************

 

TO all EPA ARES/RACES organizations:

You are encouraged to support additional redundant 24/7

Telpac nodes with -10 SSIDs. You are also welcome to use

w3eoc.no-ip.com as the primary telnet host and enjoy hubbing services if links

with the Winlink CMS fail. Your secondary and

tertiary telnet hosts should be widely separated and out-of-area for

reliable internet redundancy. The frequency you choose

should NOT be 145.690 inside or near Chester County! Please

coordinate frequencies with W3QA@arrl.net.

 

Paclink AGW/Outlook and Airmail client software are supported!

If you need an elmer, call me at 610-431-4227.

 

Future plans at Glenn Run:

W3EOC-10 145.75 Telpac port

W3EOC-4 145.75 Digiplex Node/Digi

 

Watch for station and frequency changes!
