Node 476067 on 444.350Mhz, +5 MHZ 107.2hz PL tone WB4IKY The Dstar Repeater Today (1.2 ghz in the other building) The new Echolink Repeater Burlington on 444.350 MHZ +5 pl107.2 call sign: WB4IKY and the 443.025 pl107.2 Repeater (left) New: Can you receive 1.2 ghz from AK4EG I try some places from Greensboro, Gibsonville,to Mebane. It looks we will have a good coverage over Alamance County. And this is judged on the floor height at the tower. The 1200Mhz Antenna is 120 feet higher. So play around a little with the tool. It is also good for UHF or VHF Bands to see what is in the way to your destination. Hubble story from deep space, click here: Our Livestream from AK4EG is coming from the Icom D800 in my Ham shack in Burlington, NC. It can be used to test your Audio and incoming signal. Hams with no D*Star gear can hear the Net on Sunday nights @ 9pm, and the Central Carolina Net on Thursday night,s at 8.30 pm out of the KR4RDU, Chapel Hill, NC Repeater on 442.5375 MHZ
We updated the dstar repeater to a new larger cabinet. Photos here and at the pictures link Don WD4CWE and Peter AI4UE worked the whole day on the change out. UHF and VHF works from the tower's top antenna, a Dual-Band Decibel Products Antenna. (Ever seen one of these?) 16 bays on UHF, 8 Bays on VHF. The original DB-420 16 bay has been dedicated to the FM repeater on 443.025 and works great. View from Top antenna toward Southeast.

If you point your curser on the car or call sign, it shows what Repeater it is working with. Dstar is growing up ,we added the new Repeater- 23 cm The 23cm transmits with good range (30 -60 miles), but can receive within a 70 miles range. No preamp. But it works from Mebane to Gibsonville and much more, real good. We adjusted the settings in the software, it made it alot better. The 23cm voice Repeater is installed and on air. It covers Burlington and GREENSBORO, Durham. Today added new transmit antenna,duplexer is out now. 1/23/09 This is the 23cm 14.9db Comet high gain antenna on top.

Microwave Link
When D-STAR repeaters are connected via 10GHz microwave, the D-STAR system transfers received data to another repeater site. You can also make a CQ call to a specified repeater area.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Internet Gateway Relay
When D-STAR repeaters are connected with the Internet gateway, the D-STAR system relays the received data over the Internet. Microwave links and Internet gateways can be combined even during one contact. Your message will get through to anywhere in the D-STAR system.
