Bill, Shaw, others who may have answers:
You request abuse of the node, so I just did my best, monopolizing it
for about an hour to join a net on the Japan reflector. I noticed a
couple of things I had not heard on IRLP operation before:
1. There appeared to be a pretty aggressive time out alligator.
I'm not sure where the timer in question is, at K6TZ or on the remote
node, which was a complex of IRLP, WIRES, and patched in HF. It was as
short as 30 sec or as long as a minute or more. Audio simply stops and
a second later the carrier drops but without the "beebeeboop" remote
courtesy tone. I was able to key TZ, but it did not relay any remote
audio until the timer (wherever it is) was reset by the transmitting
station standing by. My question, then, is how is the timer configured
locally?
2. Probably related to #1: periodically, a local announcement,
"3, 30 seconds received" comes on and covers up the remote audio. I was
unable to discern a relation between actual length of remote
transmission prior to hearing this announcement, or the dropping of the
carrier after the announcement. Can you clarify this one, too?
Great work in keeping the repeater and the IRLP node up. TNX & 73 de

What is the elevation of the 440 node? The last time I tried to reach
it, I found out I couldn't hit the repeater unless I was in town.

TZ-446.400 IRLP should be up and running as of
this morning would appreciate if people can use
& abuse it a little, and let me know if there are
any problems. Im specifically looking for
feedbacks on audio level to/from the remote
nodes, and audio quality. I have temporarily set
low RF transmit timeout for inbound traffic from
remote will fix it in a week or so. Also
please help keep an ear on the 446.400 system
to make sure it hasnt gone haywire.
For those of you not familiar with IRLP, the
30-second usage tutorial (minus the rules/convention/etiquette blurbs) --
To connect to the remote node:
1. Look up destination 4-digit node number at
<http://status.irlp.net/>http://status.irlp.net
2. Touch tone the 4-digit node (FYI: our K6TZ node is 3673)
To disconnect from the remote node:
1. Touch tone 73

A new study conducted in South Korea suggests children who live close to
an AM
radio transmission tower may have an elevated risk of leukemia. According to
Radio World, researchers found that children who lived within 2
kilometers of an
AM radio transmitter were twice as likely to develop lymphocytic leukemia as
children who lived more than 20 kilometers away.
The study included 1,928 children with leukemia, 956 with brain cancer
and 3,082
healthy children. The researchers took measurements of electric and magnetic
fields surrounding AM transmission towers in various areas of South
Korea. They
then used a mathematical model to estimate residents' exposure to
radiation from
the towers.
The findings were published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
