News

The KC7RIY Echolink node is now active on 147.315 MHZ.

Jim Frerichs KA0RCZ, has given us permission to put the node on his repeater.

This has restored the old link between the .315 machine, the .850 and the WB0RMO 

machine in Fairbury. Louie has a linked radio on the RMO repeater pair.. In addition, KD0AN Lee

in Edison has linked in the 146.97 repeater in Cambridge as well.

Words of Wisdom

 

The Amateur’s Code

The radio amateur is --

Considerate: -- Never knowingly operates in such a way as to lessen the pleasure of others.

Loyal: -- Offers loyalty, encouragement and support to other amateurs, local clubs, through which amateur radio in the United States is represented nationally and internationally.

Progressive: -- With knowledge abreast of science, a well built and efficient station and operation above reproach.

Friendly: -- Slow and patient operating when requested; friendly advice and counsel to the beginner; kindly assistance, cooperation and consideration for the interests of others. These are hallmarks of the amateur spirit.

Balanced: -- Radio is an avocation, never interfering with the duties owed to family, job, school or community.

Patriotic: -- Station and skill always ready for service to country or community.

Written in 1928 by Paul M. Segal, W9EEA
