How to access the
Masonic Gathering Net using EchoLink
The node number for the
*Masons* Conference is
83055. The EchoLink
System allows for remote
access to the conference
through repeaters and
stations linked to the conference. You may
find a local on-the-air link
which will allow you to
check into the Gathering.
Echolink can be used either through gateways, or by amateurs using computers. Echolink supports conference rooms, and the gateways respond to DTMF commands. It also permits computer to computer contacts. Echolink can be downloaded from http://www.synergenics.com/el/
The Echolink software package has more bell and whistles. In addition to station to station contacts, the package provides a text box for messaging the computer stations you are in contact with. It also lets you set up favorites and alarms lists. It does require memory to run and may require the opening of certain ports on your router. There are free apps available for mobile devices such as the I-Phone, etc., which work extremely well.
