1) Tune to 147.210 MHz (+ offset), PL 141.3 Hz. Listen before accessing the system since others may be using the link. Push and hold your PTT button, then push * on your DTMF keypad, then release both buttons, to determine if you are in range of the repeater. The repeater will transmit an identification message in response unless someone is connected. Send 08 to see if anyone is connected. If a station is connected, it will come back with the call, if not, you will hear "disconnected".

2) To test the quality of your signal into the repeater and quality of the EchoLink network connection, you may access a test station node (called ECHOTEST) by entering station node number 9999. We recommend that all new users try this test node the first time you try EchoLink to help you become familiar with system use.  This node will repeat your transmission back to you so you can hear your transmission quality. Remember to press # to disconnect when you are done.

3) To make a call, press in your push to talk and hold it while entering the node number of the person you wish to call or enter a code number from the list below.
