Guidelines for using IRLP and echo link on GB3YR
Its great to see GB3YR becoming the centre of attention again and great to hear folks making use of the internet linking systems. There is so much pleasure available to everyone via SYRG’s internet linked repeaters GB3YR & GB7YD. With the upsurge in usage of echolink/IRLP and after listening to feedback from users on GB3YR, the group feel that some simple guidelines for usage need re-iterating.

Full guidelines for using GB3YR can be found on the GB3YR page and in the SYRG forum.
