AllStar As stated above AllStar is the newer form of ILRP . Using Allstar allows connection via RF, PC software, cell phone APPs. AllStar Link combines the best features of Echolink, IRLP, an autopatch, and a high-end repeater controller into a simple, freely obtainable software package that...

Does anyone have experience getting the new ALLSTAR "Radio Thin Client Module" working. I just purchased one and it has very limited paperwork (Downloadable manual only). Getting ready to put it together (making Cabling) and just looking for advise from anyone who had taken on the project.

WinSystem Look at their website their name at .org. You click on repeaters and see what is close to your location. That way you can't go wrong.

Congrats.... KJ6OOH /AG Good for you. Congrats on your upgrade to General class and passing the test. :tongue:

The TSU-8 CTCSS Tone Decoder is a small board that plugs into your radio. It allows you to search for repeater tones so you can talk. I am not going into what a tone is other than say your radio will transmit a specific tone (you will not hear it) which is recognized by other radios and allows...

Yukikaze, Just be aware that transmitting on police and fire freqs can bring trouble if your heard by them. Note that you could be on an input freq and not hear them but your still interfering with them. It is safer to stay in the legal ham bands and just listen to the rest. In some areas the...

My first thought was that you burned something up from someone transmitting without an antenna connected, but now you say it will transmit -it may be your mic that is bad. The 642/742/942 Kenwoods were known to have the mic buttons go out. You can open it up and re-solder a new push to talk...

Thanks I'll look at those that you listed.

I am looking at 2 meter/440 mobiles to replace my old Kenwood 742 which is slowly dying (has been a great radio). I would like to find a radio that will receive aircraft AM and up to the 500 MHz band area. I know there are lots of HT's out there that have this wide receive. Are there a few...

reset Use the free software from Wouxun and download it to reset the radio. Good Luck.

Dead radio fix that worked for me Mine did the same thing and was a brick. I opened the programing program and went new with no freqs added. I plugged in the radio, turned it on (even though it was blank) and downloaded the blank program. Surprise the radio came back to life. Next I just...

Thanks for the help. I passed my General today only missing two, which I knew but marked them wrong. Now the fun begins...

Thanks Thanks great tips. I will take advantage of all the comments and see what I can do. If I can learn them as I go, that may help, and the band plan may allow me to make since of it all.

Hi, I am studying for my General class License and I just can't seem to get the lower bands (freqs) memorized. Anyone have a trick to learning them before actually being able to use them? Any comments would be appreciated. I need to do something to get the light to come on so I can...
