Signed up to Echolink

thanks to andy's ( G6OHM ) persuasion, dave and i have signed up for echolink.just waiting for validation

Yes thank you Andy G6OHM, Would have never got around in giving it a go. Always something that was on the list of things to do but didn't get done and possibly was not going to get done!!!

Will catch you on Echolink in the next few days...

When the Americans are up on the ISS etc give NASA's Echolink node a listen. It's amazing. They not only give you a live feed for all radio traffic but every so often also inform you about what is happening both at that moment & in relation to the mission as a whole.
It really is a great place to be when they are up there.

I have taken some photos of my Licence and sent them via the download screen so hope withing the next few hours I will be live on it...

Maybe we can catch up on it Daxi.

Anyway what are you doing on the forum? You should be studying!!! I will have to ban you for 6 days!!! Hmmm idea

Hehehe,the first banning. Thats also something special for the forum too

Seriously tho, GOOD LUCK FOR THE TEST. It does open a whole new world for you

Having lots of problems... Spent 2 or more hours on the phone to AOL trying to get the router to work with ADP? Ports... They can't find any settings on the router. We have the speedtouch model router from AOL. I think I have a D-Link one in storage at my Girlfriends mum's so when we go next week I will dig it out and give that a go...

Problems, Problems, Problems...

Back on Echolink now in the shack... Not sure if it's working properly so if someone want's to give it a go? I am using my old call sign at the moment MW3VSG but hope to get it changed in the next few hours...

Dave

Thanks for the information Dave, I have a throat infection here at the moment so cannot be screaming you there, but hope back to normal (if there is such a thing) in the near future

Sorry to hear about your poor health. I hope you you get better soon!. Will be good to try the echolink out to make sure it's working ok!

All the best,

Dave
P.S. Get plenty of rest!!!

Im now online with the new call sign... :-)

Downloaded EchoMac http://echomac.sourceforge.net/index.html this morning and managed to get it working but not tested it yet... The only thing I needed to change on the router was the IP address. The UDP ports are the same as the ones I had to setup for Echolink 5198 / 5199

Well I have a problem with EchoLink / EchoMac... The audio from other users is very very distorted just like they are breaking the squelch... Anyone have any ideas?

Dave

ditch the mac and get a proper PC.

Also does it on the "PROPER PC"... lol

hope you get it sorted,

thanks dave for the png.just waiting for validation .
