For a example of an IRLP QSO, please Click Here.
Node 6260 to Node 3957
"Your link to the world, if you would please..."
Each step is important, so please seek assistance as needed
Note: Before you attempt to dial out a node number, there are pre-access codes required before dialing. Node 7141 has a
open access code, 006. This means if you are trying to call node number 1000, you would dial "006 1000". To disconnect
the called node, you would dial "006 73".
This is not meant to keep people from using the IRLP. We have had issues with someone or something entering a bunch of DTMF
tones on the system, and the IRLP will link up to a node, and it causes a bunch of problems. If there is a access code entered,
then it prevents our IRLP's from linking up with another node when something is "pounding on the keypad".
Please feel free to use the IRLP's as much as you would like. Just dial 006 before the node to connect, and 006 73 to disconnect.
Here are the guidelines for using KBARA's IRLP connections:
1. Visit www.irlp.net to learn about IRLP guidelines
2. Announce your call and state your intention (example: "This is N1NG for the Bellingham node")
3. Connect to a node by entering the DTMF tones associated with the desired node (*complete list of active nodes)
4. Wait to see if the distant system is in use
5. Enjoy your QSO
6. Disconnect from the node by announcing your call followed by sending DTMF tones (example: "This is N1NG closing the Bellingham node"
Remember:
It's not a good idea to transmit touch-tone commands without first giving your call-sign. Not only is this courteous it is a regulatory issue in some countries
who may be connected to the reflector.
If you enjoy this node and other KBARA resources and activities, please consider becoming a member.
Command List:
To Connect:
1234 = 1234 is your node number
To Disconnect:
73 = Disconnect from your IRLP link

This is a collaborative effort on the part of several generous KBARA members and establishes an open Internet Radio Linking Project (IRLP) node. The goal of IRLP is to provide an inexpensive (nearing worldwide) link between amateur radio systems using Voice-Over-IP (VoIP) technology.
The reason for choosing IRLP over one of the other internet-related modes is that it provides a rich amateur radio experience which focuses more on radio operation than Internet access. Access to, and control of IRLP nodes is dependent upon DTMF signals generated from participating radios.
Thanks to VE7DTT, N7WRQ, KB7WTO, W7OE, KD7DDQ, KG5AO, KE7CBS, and N1NG for encouraging and supporting this project!
For more information on IRLP such as operating procedures, please visit www.irlp.net.
* Please note: The node list changes frequently, so if you are using a paper list and receive a timeout error upon your attempt to connect, please try another. Also, as new nodes appear, you will want to obtain new copies of node lists when feasible.
Please remember some basic ideas:
1. Announce your call BEFORE you transmit DTMF signals
2. Remember to pause between transmissions
3. To prevent Evergreen Intertie system timeouts, please try to keep each end of your conversation under 90 seconds
