W0PC & W0PC-10 Gateways

Submitted by W0PC on Tue, 2014-08-19 23:44

Welcome to the W0PC Gateway stations. I established the Gateway stations to assist with emergency operations. The stations are listed as "Public" to promote use in training of ham radio operators as well as to insure the equipment is working when the "Big One" strikes. There is nothing like waiting until a disaster to find out the equipment doesn't function, software is out of date or the available radio operators don't know how to use it. Feel free to use the stations. If you find a problem with either of them, please send me and email.

After finally getting registered with WINLINK, my OS decided to deny me access to my network, so after a quick reload of Xubuntu 14.04 LTS 32 I am back on the air.

The system is part of a LinBPQ (BPQ32 written for Linux geeks) node/BBS/chat/RMS system I have been testing. It has been so stable (with the exception of the network issue) that I decided to make it a permanent fixture in my shack.

Now I am considering a TriMode station as well. That will necessitate another HF rig (poor me) and another antenna but it should be doable.
