900 Night is back on the fourth Thursday of each month starting May 26th at the 3A Bar and Grill on Court St in North Plymouth from 5pm to 7pm.

Attached is a copy of the menu: pizza and apps.

Hope to see everyone there, we'll have radio programming, new toys, and maybe even a swap table if anybody has anything they'd like to part with.

Hello everyone,
I have not forgotten Georgetown. Since I have not located my DAC cards for Nucleus station I’m shuffling equipment around down the road.&

Deerfields transmitter will move to Georgetown as it is burned in. All I have to do is reprogram frequency. This machine will eventually move to Goffstown. 


 Georgetowns future machine is being built now. It will or should have 2 available link channels which I plan to program one channel to do a scheduled link up during quiet times with a on demand DTMF linkup command that can happen on either side. The other channel might link to Goffstown if Deerfield happens to link northbound. It all depends on my future simulcast endeavor. If simulcast ever happens the simulcast system can link southbound and northbound I think. Basically once simulcast it frees up 4 or 6 ports for RF links. Simulcast will be IP based.

I just need to know who wishes to allow their machine to link up via RF. This would tie all NH machines to a MA machine or MA network. Let me know and nothing needs to be done on other side so it just happens when I do it.

This will all happen after I build the new Deerfield machine which will be linked to Goffstown and Georgetown or maybe to the 900 machine in the lakes region 

Right now I have the NUC ripped apart mounting some needed boards for keying and voltage step down as DC on NUC is 14.x volts and LNA needs no more than 13vdc I believe but have to confirm. Since I’m using an old Arcom RC-210 controller it will not key NUC due to how external key request it done. You can do it if you pull NUCs 5 volts key request line down to 1.9 volts, but that sets a path to current flow to ground from RC-210 and keeps front panel PTT LED on, so I don’t like that.

Attached is the ripped apart picture with back panel sheet metal drilled and boards mounted. 
Have to go buy metric nuts to finish board mounting. This is back of NUC chassis.

That’s all folks !

It sounds like so much fun.  If I didn’t have COVID, I’d definitely be there.  Hope to join next time. 

Have fun and 73,

Rich, N1ATM
