Amateur Radio's Internet Radio Linking Project |

IRLP stands for Internet
Radio Linking Project. It is the linking of Amateur
Radio repeaters and simplex channels from throughout the world to each
other. For example, you could talk on a 440 repeater located here in
Southern California via the Internet to a repeater in Atlanta! When
you're done chatting, you can connect to Anchorage or Dallas or San Jose
or Washington DC or Vancouver or Toronto or Sydney, Australia, or
Sheffield in the UK, or Dominica island in the Caribbean, or any of over
1000 other 'nodes'!! It's a powerful system, and 'you' with control
privileges on your local 'node' have the ability to choose where you
want to connect to. You could connect to a 'reflector' which is kind of
like a central hub where you are linked to whatever other 'nodes' are
connected--sometimes there's a dozen other repeaters connected and ALL
linked together! In case you were wondering, the audio quality of IRLP
is excellent, and the delay is barely noticeable. It works great!  listen to live audio feed
of Reflector #2 IRLP is very exciting and interesting. If you don't have access to a local repeater or simplex channel which is part of IRLP, it's not impossible to set up a ‘node‘ yourself. The official IRLP web site explains it all. In this author’s opinion, IRLP is the best thing to come along in quite a while, and to those who think that ham radio is being replaced by the Internet—well here we have both working together. One system where you can listen to IRLP is on the WA6RQD system: 447.380 Santiago Peak. Stop by and give us a listen. You’re bound to hear interesting and exciting QSO’s going on with locales that you never thought you could talk to from Southern California...at least not on an HT running 5 watts! :) - copyright 2001 by Mike Levy, KE6ALV, Member WA6RQD IRLP node (315), Oceanside, CA, USA.
