| K5ZRO 147.270 Repeater Information |
This repeater will be divided into four different parts: the repeater, autopatch, echolink, and the NOAA weather radio (NWR) functions.
To initiate an autopatch, key-up and enter the autopatch access code {777} followed by the number. Un-key, and the repeater will announce the number dialed. If the number is incorrect, key-up and enter the autopatch disconnect {#} code within two seconds. This will terminate the call before it is dialed to prevent a wrong number. After the 2 second delay the repeater will dial. A series of beeps will be generated to indicate dialing in progress. To terminate the autopatch, key-up and press #.
Normally, the length of an autopatch call is limited to 3 minutes If during an autopatch, additional time is needed, key up and send {*1}. This will reset the autopatch timer. The voice will say: "AUTOPATCH TIMER RESET."
To terminate the autopatch key-up, enter # . Un-key, the autopatch will terminate and the voice will log the time.
If you attempt an autopatch and your call is not completed, the repeater has last number redial. Redial will remain active for a period of ten minutes after the previous call. To place a last number redial call, key-up and send {777*}.
