  East Coast Reflector - Raleigh #9210

The KD4RAA Repeater Group-sponsored 146.775 - PL 88.5 repeater and area UHF linked repeaters are now linked to hundreds of participating repeater sites throughout the United States, Canada, and internationally. We are the first Repeater System in North Carolina to have a linking node into the IRLP project. 
IRLP uses Voice-Over-IP software and the power of the Internet to link your Amateur Radio to the world. The system uses its own custom interface board and software
package, designed by Canadian ham, Dave Cameron VE7LTD.

We have several nodes here in Raleigh and sponsor other IRLP nodes across the Carolinas. Here is the breakout of both our IRLP node list and associated UHF Link system in detail: Complete List KD4RAA-K4JDR Sponsored IRLP links.

It is important that you view the KD4RAA  IRLP User Guide .  There you will find definitions of IRLP terms and an operational guide to access our system. 

To support the local IRLP effort you can obtain node access codes by subscribing to group's Supporting Member Form. Donation Policy Information is here.

You can also check out the IRLP Node World Map, created by Jim Price WW4M, our chief node administrators for the project. This map identifies the various IRLP node links around the world.  

We are proud to have added the Raleigh / East Coast Reflector  9210 to our system. This reflector will allow all of our participating nodes to connect simultaneously and can be used not only for general linking in the Carolinas but for Emergency Response, Severe Weather Monitoring, Called Nets - regionally and internationally, Special Events like the International Space Station Contacts, Boy Scouts Jamboree Over the Air (JOTA) and Educational Contacts to the McMurdo Science Station in Antarctica and more. The National Hurricane Center uses Reflector 9210 for hurricane storm tracking. View details of the WA0ERX, East Coast Reflector here.  Reflector Channel Assignments and Net Schedule here.

Listening note: When an IRLP connection is active, you'll hear courtesy tone (beep) when local activity keys on the 146.775 repeater, node 4260 . When you hear a "chord" tone, that is activity coming from the IRLP link side.

On the UHF link system using Node 4270, A  high beep on the 441.725 Hub and the participating links are heard normally with no IRLP connection.......... and no courtesy beep, when IRLP is active.
