IRLP USAGE (BASIC)

For new IRLP users, please refer to the IRLP Operating Guidelines

The guidelines page explains how the system works, explains what reflectors are and how they work, and provides important instruction on how to use IRLP. All IRLP users should review the guidelines from time to time.

Our IRLP node number is 1736 and is accessible from only the VHF repeater.

OPEN an IRLP connection:

Hold PTT, say your CALLSIGN, and dial the node or reflector number via DTMF keypad. Release PTT once 4-digit dialing sequence is complete.

CLOSE an IRLP connection:

Hold PTT and dial “73” via DTMF mic. Release PTT.

Note: when disconnecting from a reflector, it is best not to identify before you dial “73.” Wait until the link has dropped, then say your callsign so people locally here on the repeater know who disconnected the link. It can become annoying to those who monitor the reflector to hear your ID before you disconnect. A busy reflector will often have two of three nodes connect and disconnect per minute.

The IRLP network status page: http://status.irlp.net
Use the status page to view nodes by country, see reflector usage, etc. Node lists can be printed for easy reference.

ECHOLINK USAGE (BASIC)

Our Echolink node number for VE7RSC-VHF: 496228

OPEN an Echolink connection:

Hold PTT, say your callsign, and dial the echolink node number preceded by an asterisk. Release PTT once dialing sequence is complete.
For example: PTT + *190638 will connect to echolink node number 190638. (VE7RHS repeater at UBC)

CLOSE an Echolink connection:

Hold PTT and dial “73” via DTMF mic. Release PTT.
