LOARN  —  Lake Oroville Amateur Radio Net

Welcome to KJ6LVV D-Star Repeater - 444.275  +5 Mhz  

The LOARN D-Star repeater is located at Lake Oroville’s Bidwell Canyon Marina and provides excellent coverage for a majority of the Lake and parts of Oroville, CA.  

 

This new generation D-Star compatible repeater does not use any Icom equipment.  It is built using commonly available Motorola Maxtrac radios, a Satoshi GMSK modem and a GTX ATOM based computer running David Lake’s StarGate software under the Centos Linux OS.

 

Using The Repeater

 

To configure your D-Star radio set the following call sign settings.

 

UR     =  Destination call sign, typically CQCQCQ

RPT1  =  KJ6LVV B

The repeater is normally connected to D-Star reflector 14 C. This reflector is widely used as the Northern California hub for D-Star repeaters and hot spots.

 

You can link the LOARN repeater to any repeater or reflector on the D-Star network worldwide.  When you are done, please return the system to reflector 14 C
