EchoLink connection to GB7SI will be the next project, ID number 43310 has now been registered. Which Time-Slot, Talk-Group has yet to be decided and the purchased of further hardware will delay the launch.

ALLStar node connection now active and fully operational after a few one way audio issues last week.
Talk-time limit is 3 minutes and leave a 4 second break between overs to allow all the Node connections to reset.
Remember if your QSO is between just local DMR stations on Time-Slot 1, Talk-Group 1, your conversation is also going via the ALLStar network world wide. This would then stop another conversation from taking place via HubNet UK node 41522, so please move any local DMR QSO onto Time-Slot 2, Talk-Group 9, thank you.
