Computers:
  • I have multiple PC's online running Windows XP.  A primary file server, a primary station PC for logging, digital modes, radio control, etc., a standby system acting as a print server and hosting my Shack Cam, and my remote PC currently in it's final test and tune stages.  This system is currently a three in one: APRS IGATE/Limited Digipeater, Winlink RMS Packet Server, and Echolink/EchoProducer Simplex Node.  This system may house a future IRLP node also.
Projects:
  • Above mentioned PC with APRS/RMS Packet/Echolink is my latest project.  The system is online and appears stable.  Three homebrew antennas are currently in use and seem to be performing Ok considering their location and feed lines.  Update planned: move entire system to 800' ASL on a hill here close to my QTH.  This should provide good coverage for the local area.
