FCC writes the regulations.
-
I suspect that was just a timing thing. After creating the page on Wikipedia and then coming here and posting a link, Wikipedia probably quarantined it while their bots made sure it was Wikipedia worthy.
-
Yes. Almost all repeaters have either CTCSS (aka PL) or DTCSS (DPL) to prevent being activated by every random transmission.

A link to the draft Wikipedia page appears at the link. It’s for people who want to learn more about an audio aggregator. Everyone else can easily ignore it. But I don’t really see much use for the Audio Aggregatoron a PC as a way to connect a radio to the internet, when a raspberry pi running allstar or Shari does it easier and with a lot more community support.

Great to finally have you here!

Welcome! Insert “At Last” song!

Our ham radio club will be providing communications for a bike race called Race Around The Pintler in One Day, RATPOD for short, which raises money for Camp Make A Dream. We’ll travel along the course with mobile and handheld radios making sure the racers are safe. By afternoon most of the racers are exhausted. https://www.campdream.org/events/ratpod/

It certainly would not work as a simulcast system or have voting, but is there any reason it couldn’t be reconfigured as separate repeaters? -
Are you trying to register using wsci776? Earlier you were trying wsc1776, which is definitely wrong. Call signs are four letters and three numbers.
-
I would do as @LeoG said, turn off the linking and keep the repeaters up unlinked. Then, with no possible violations present, have a lawyer contact the fcc enforcement department to find out if they sent an email.
-
How long do you wait for something that might never come.
-
Except for the last sentence I fully agree. And I admit that the last sentence is a possibility; I just don’t know enough about the situation to suggest it as the motivation.
-
Scammers count on that level of fear to avoid getting caught.
-
Exactly.
-
I think several of us are waiting to see exactly what really happened. I haven’t heard of the FCC emailing someone telling them to shut down a repeater before. This sounds more like someone running a scam. You did nothing wrong.

The Mesa Crest Repeater Club Clarifying the MISS INFORMATION
SteveShannon replied to TMCRC's topic in General Discussion
Where would the additional pairs come from? Any petition would have to solve that. -
I don’t use repeater networking on gmrs, but I know that for DMR each node has its own ID number. There are different networks with Brandmeister being the largest by far. But in order to prevent conflicts all of the ID numbers are doled out by a single clearinghouse. So my brandmeister ID isn’t a duplicate of one on MARC or Western States DMR network. That also allows gateways between the different networks.
-
Thank you. How does a person selectively connect to another node? DTMF?
-
Okay, but how does it apply to GMRS? Our conversations still cannot be individually routed or muxed. There’s still just one conversation per channel, audible to everyone else within range. How does this benefit us?

Wouxon KG-1000G Configurable Buttons
SteveShannon replied to terryb's question in Technical Discussion
Sometimes things are called by different names and it’s easy to miss them. These were called “Side buttons” in the table of contents. -
That’s what I have also.
-
I’m glad you posted this explanation because I thought your other post implied that Randy posts BS. I’m glad to be wrong.

SteveShannon replied to terryb's question in Technical Discussion
About an hour ago I posted the manual pages showing the instructions.
