Echolink interface (UK)
After weeks of collecting parts and one Sunday of soldering, drilling and sawing it was ready to go: the echolink interface. The device has been built with the PH0DV interface as an example.

433.6500 MHz Tetra / Echolink node (UK)
The first step of the Tetra / Echolink project has been successfully completed. At 433.6500 MHz the node is available to accept connections via Tetra. Following the PH0DV example a connection between a Tetra transceiver and the Echolink network has been established. The transceiver is a Motorola MTM800 with remote control head. Also the base part of […]
