It certainly doesn't make the "PLAYING FIELDS LEVEL"

Our local Node op has been away this weekend helping at the Blackpool Rally so
his
nodes been down since Friday , its just gone up.

In some respect we're lucky as he's an elderly bloke with mobility problems ,
he
doesn't get out much , so when he's up its on , he's still p***ed off with
this 24
/ 7 x 28 day contest .


The Next comment you make is that its radio to radio , that's not 100 %
correct ,
I know of at least 3 VK's , 2 VE's and at least 5 G / M stations that don't
have a
radio connected to their node . Its quite easy to confirm that comment about G
/ M
stations if you know where to look.

Are you sure you are not confusing IRLP with echolink? I personally
don't agree with using your computer to access the the network like
echolink does, but I am not going to stop any licensed person from doing
so if the regs. allow it.

If had meant EchoLink , I would have said EchoLink , you as I were talking
about IRLP and my response was in that vein.

I have been around before the inception of IRLP by Dave Cameron even before the
demise of IPhone and the I'll fated ILink.

If you know how to look you will find a number of IRLP nodes on air in the UK that
CAN NOT be attached to a radio.
