K E 6 Y J C . O R G "Driving Amateur Radio into the future...."

The Echolink node on 146.775 repeater and can be accessed from a 2 meter radio tuned to the repeater frequency. (The station index number code for the KE6YJC-L node is 29648.)

The Echolink gateway will respond to the following commands using DTMF tones from the radio.

DTMF Code	Description
01 nnnnn	Connect to station index number nnnnn
01 00	Connect to any random station
01 01	Connect to any random repeater station
01 02	Connect to random conference server
01 73	Disconnect
01 *	Request station information file.

 

1. To establish a Echolink connection, perform the following steps:
2. It is recommended that you first identify your station on the repeater and that you are attempting Echolink operation.
3. Optionally, you can determine if the Echolink gateway is operational by keying a "01 *" DTMF tone. The gateway node will respond with status information.
4. Key the four or five digit station code for the station or repeater that you wish to link to.
   
5. After a few seconds delay, the Echolink node will respond with a "Connected" message if the link was successful. If the link was not successful, key a "01 #" to disconnect the gateway node.
   
6. Following a successful connection, announce your presence on the linked repeater by calling CQ, etc.
   
7. At the end of the QSO, disconnect the link by keying a "01 #" DTMF tone. The Echolink gateway will respond with confirmation that the link has been disconnected.

* Please make sure you ID before you try to control the EchoLink Node so everyone knows what you are doing. Operators are listening to the system 24 hours a day and will function off the EchoLink node or Repeaters to prevent unauthorized access to the system.
