The touchtone decoder needs a good quality signal to operate correctly.

Be courteous as with all repeater conversations. 

Remember there is a delay because of the Internet link.  Please identify with your call sign and location to allow

those on the other node to  know where you are.  Please do not discuss the codes over the air.  There might be

"spoilers" listening. 

To access a remote node: First enter "B and a "Zero" on the touchtone pad to ensure that the site is not is use.

The local node will reply with either "Link Off" or with the node that is currently connected.

If the reply is "Link Off", give your call sign and enter B and the Four-Digit node number of the node you wish to

connect to. 

Wait a moment for the connection to be completed.

You will hear a welcome message or one of the error messages listed below.

Enter "B and 73" to close the link to the remote node.
