Offroad & Overland Amateur Radio Net - Bay Area + IRLP

I tried to get on irlp node 9351 but was not able to connect to it successfully. I don't think 9351 is a valid node.

We were unable to connect to the node as well tonight. Not sure why. It is a valid node, and we've used it before: http://status.irlp.net/index.php?PSTART=11&nodeid=9350

Could be something with the heat is causing issues, could be something else. Sorry we missed you.

Hmm... Could connect to 9350 but I tried a little after 8. Prior to that I tried 9351 and my local node reported nothing. But on 9350 it did report a connection. W7PEA

Is this net still active?

Hey,
Kind of sort of. I've missed a few due to being out of town recently, and attendance has kind of dropped off. Generally we're still doing it every Weds. night and some nights a handful of people show up. Some nights not so much.

I'm considering switching it to semi-weekly.

Hey Aaron... did the IRLP node ever get sorted out? Just curious. I'd like to join in, but have been unsuccessful ever connecting. It's just a bit to far for me to hit the ridge without it. Brian

I just found this thread and have been a Ham for a couple weeks now. I'm going to try to make it in via IRLP but this week is my local Ham meeting at 7:00. If not I'll try to jump in on 9/20/17. Please post any updates to echolink access too. Always nice to have an option if the local node is being used.
Thanks
Steve

You mean Echolink? IRLP has been running well recently. There was a week or something where it was down. Echolink still hasn't been setup. The repeater owner seems to be struggling with the config and recently has been moving, so not terribly high on his priority list unfortunately.

Come back 9/20 - we're switching to biweekly, so we won't have a net this week. We'll be back on the 20th though, hope to hear from you!

Hey, we've moved to an every-other-week schedule. Next net will be Weds the 11th.

I'll be lurking once I get my gear in while I study for my exam.

27 deg out there tonight. Hopefully I'll get a hand held from Santa and will catch up with you guys after the holidays.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know I'm gonna be putting the net on hold for a bit.

Lack of interest/attendance, the inability to get Echolink going on the current repeater, and my own desire to get my truck project done is driving the decision.

I'll post up again if/when I start this up again. I'd like to in the near future, but a few things need to change to make that feasible.

Hope everyone has a great winter! It was really fun talking to those who did join us and I really hope this won't be the end, just a pause.
