To WCARC Members:

I received an email from Keri, KB0YNA, about the work that he and Bill Ridings, KB0YZI, did on the IRLP node at the CAP 145.175 MHz.  Keri informed me that Bill donated a new computer for an upgrade on the IRLP.  We all owe Keri and Bill many thanks for the time and equipment that they both donated to upgrade the club’s IRLP.

Keri provided a link that will allow anyone to check the status of the IRLP:

Keri (hope Bill will join him) will be joining us at the February meeting to provide more information.

Thanks again to Keri and Bill for all their time and effort.
