Isn't that convienient! That just happens to be exactly what you need to
use IRLP!!!

Of course, you also need a kind Amateur who has a computer and a broadband
internet connection, and who has donated his/her own time, equipment and
knowledge to provide a service for the rest of us.

I have four computers in my shack/living room, one of which is connected to
the HF radio and is currently providing an SSTV repeater on 7033KHz.
