<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">The computer in the shack is on the unsecure university network so we shouldn’t have an issue with getting an internet connection or posting APRS reports to
the Internet. Last time we talked about it I think there was a question of whether we’d be able to remotely access the computer via ssh or forwards ports for an echolink server. I think we figured out that it would be possible but I don’t recall how.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Ubuntu server on it. We might be able to upgrade a few of the parts in it with spare parts we have lying around.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">If I may, let me comment on Chris's mention of the 'digipeater' operation. The APRS 'digipeater' is nice, but really the
<u>minimum</u> need is for the 2 meter receiver to feed APRS position reports into the internet as a gateway, or iGate as it is termed. Repeating APRS signals via a 'digipeater' is just gravy. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">I am guessing without other knowledge that the 2 meter radio is fine, the TNC (modem) is fine, and the antenna is fine, but there is something wrong with the PC
in the K4RY shack. We had purchased a nice dual band antenna and it was working very well on the roof of Broun last year. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">What is needed to, "...get the computer back in operation."? I'm no expert there. You folks know a LOT more about computers and networking than I do. Is this
an AU IT network access control issue, a hardware problem with the PC, or a software problem? It was working and working well. What happened to change it from working well to not working at all? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
