Important Club Meeting Update!!!

 

By popular vote, next months meeting on September 30, 2010 will be held at the Jasper County Airport main terminal building at the normal time of 7:00 pm.

 

This is just a temporary move and we will decide then if we want to continue meeting there or if we want to try another location.

 

The airport is located a few miles west of Jasper at the intersection of Hwys 190 & the first 777.

Turn South on 777, then turn in the first entrance to the airport and go to the main terminal building.

After some testing, trials, and tribulations, the Echolink node is finally running as W5JAS-R (Node Number #480827).   All in all, the node is working well and has been used several times by hams around the US.

 

If you have any issues, contact David - KF5DHY on the radio, or send email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

 

Below is a quick-start guide to using the W5JAS Echolink (Requires a PDF capable reader such as OSX Preview or Adobe Acrobat Reader).  The top portion is a pocket reference that can be cut out and folded down to wallet size.  I will be updating this guide soon with other local area Echolink stations.
