The echolink is setup at KB3AWQ's home in the West End of Williamsport, PA. Using an Alinco DR 605T dual band mobile hooked to the computer from the 440 side using a 1/4 wave mag mount to get the signal to the W3AHS Repeater on 147.300 PL 151.4 via the Motorola GM-300 at the repeater at Williamsport Area High School. Echotime is also hooked up to combine with echolink. - Enjoy!

Visit http://www.echolink.org for more info or if you want to use echolink from your computer. Whoever you connect to it shows that W3AHS connected to them but the normal FCC rules apply, ID when entering commands and when connecting to a node with the exception of waiting a few seconds to see if the node is in use. 73 and have fun!
