Chairperson Information

Ray Fletcher --- KB7VMS

The BEARS Repeater can now be connected to by WEB access through EchoLink. The repeater is identified as K7NWS-R, or node 106642.

It operates from my home in Seattle, but still loses the WEB connection after about 8 to 10 hours,  So I restart it a couple times a day to keep the access on line.  Still have to figure out why it drops off. So it is available most of the time, but when I'm away it will be down longer. It currently is limited to three connections at once, to be sure the web connection bandwidth will support it.

Its still all pretty new to me, so I still have things to learn. Hope you enjoy it, while I figure out how to get it adjusted. Just be sure to allow lots of time when switching from transmit to receive, since Echolink has about 4 sec delay in the system.
