Jefferson County Packet Nodes


Node call: N8GD-11 (highest profile Node for Jefferson County @ 1300' AMSL; Also functions as a digipeater)
Node alias: JEFFOH (this alias also connects to the Node and can be used as a digipeater)
Software: BPQ32 Ver 6.0.21.1 (Windows)
Operating Frequencies/Baudrates:
145.070 MHz 1200 Baud
Location: Wintersville, Ohio (center of village)
Contact:
Greg, N8GD
N8GD@WINLINK.ORG
n8gd@arrl.net
Additional notes:
BBS: Links to WINTOH:N8GD-3 BBS via an IP path, failover to RF via 145.07 MHz if IP is down
Digis: N8GD-11 & JEFFOH
Other: Highest node location @ 1300' AMSL for best connectivity
Note: Access the WINTOH:N8GD-3 BBS using either "BBS" or "WINTOH" commands directly from this node


Node call: N8GD-7 (main Node for Jefferson County; Also functions as a digipeater)
Node alias: WINTVL (this alias also connects to the Node and can be used as a digipeater)
Software: BPQ32 Ver 6.0.21.1 (Windows)
Operating Frequencies/Baudrates:
145.070 MHz 1200 Baud
145.010 MHz 1200 Baud
Intra-D9 bridging of 145.070 MHz 1200 Baud to 145.010 MHz 1200 Baud
Location: Wintersville, Ohio

n8gd@arrl.net
Additional notes:
BBS: N8GD-3 (alias WINTOH), Sponsored by TERA/ARES
Winlink RMS Gateway: N8GD-10 (VHF only)
Digis: N8GD-7 & WINTVL
Other: This node/BBS is linked to JEFFOH:N8GD-11 via an IP path
Note: Access on the 145.01 MHz port is very limited since the antenna
on that frequency is highly directional @ 260 degrees (close to due West)
to allow for connectivity to the HARCO:KB8YDK-1 node in Deersville, Ohio

    The HARCO:KB8YDK-1 node went down at 9:30 PM local time on 9/19/2021. It was restored
    to normal operation at 3:00 PM on 10/1/2021 (the failing power supply was replaced).
    Thus, connectivity to/from the west via the HARCO node has now returned to normal.

Nodecall: KC8YJJ-7
Note: KC8YJJ is no longer on the air. This includes the KC8YJJ-7 KA-Node, KC8YJJ-1 Kantronics PBBS, and most importantly, the KC8YJJ-10 Winlink RMS Gateway all on 145.07 MHz. KC8YJJ is also no longer operating his HF RMS Gateway. The only path into Jefferson County as of mid-August 2021 is via HARCO:KB8YDK-1 on 145.01 MHZ in Deersville, Ohio, then to WINTVL:N8GD-7. Contact N8GD (above) for further info.
