We also found two patches of snow. - BK - REPEATER RULE 14: Repeaters and their antennas always fail when there is two feet of drifted snow on the ground and the temperature is below zero (we have observed icicles 8-12 inches long - hanging at 90 degrees from the tower!). - BK Our repeaters in the PARC bunker on Palomar Mt. at 5.600' cover 2.000 sq.mi. of S.D.Co. and 140+ miles out to sea. Be FRIENDLY to those that you talk to and INVITE them to support the club with their membership. You can check their membership in PARC by asking them if they have seen something in the most recent SCOPE or by looking at page 8 in this SCOPE. ~ AUT 0 PAT C H E S KA6UAI/R: Erik Thompson •• ll ••KA6UAI ENCINITAS + surounding towns KA6UAI/R: Jerry Hauser •••12 •• WB6FMT VISTA + surounding towns WA6IPD/R: Art Rideout ••• 14 •• WA6IPD FALLBROOK + surounding towns A recent 30 minute phone conversation with the Director of Enforcement for the FCC in San Diego. Jerry Friedman. indicates that amateurs need to be especially careful in their use of autopatches. Amateurs are not to use the patches to AVOID MAKING A TOLL CALL. Walking out of your office and calling on the autopatch to tell your wife you are coming home now is a NO NO! You should have called on the office phone long distance giving her that information. It would appear that the above call would have been ok if it did not involve a long distance charge from your place of work. The tes~ is. "are you using amateur radio to avoid a phone charge?" Calling on the autopatch to tell her that you are hung up in traffic on 1-15 and will be late coming home is ok since it is a call that would not normally have been made but with the advent of commercial car phones one wonders what the future holds in this area. Calling home on your HT while taking a "health" walk is FB (fine business). One wonders what the feeling would be about our ·sail boaters· using the autopatch. I guess if you had no means of making a commercial call from your boat. autopatch use could be justified. It would not be justified if you were just several minutes from the dock where commercial phones are available. EACH call should be checked to see that it passes the following tests: l)ARE YOU TRYING TO AVOID A TOLL? 2)ARE YOU CONDUCTING BUSINESS? EACH call must meet BOTH above two tests. of the The fi rst one is usually obvious but the second one is more difficult. We most often think of it as conducting business calls related to OUR own business but it can be applied to other areas as well. Calling up and ordering a pizza is a NO NO. Asking someone to pick up something for our business is a NO NO. Calling up the office and telling them that you are going to be late for work is probably a NO NO. Contacting a towing service for yourself or someone else along the highway is ok provided that you do not have a commercial radiotelephone in the car with you. Remember that our autopatches were installed to help us with EMERGENCY traffic and to provide communications during DISASTERS when no other form of communications is available. Sometimes "blocks" of telephone exchange(s) become separated in emergencies and our system, we hope. will still function and allow emergency units to communicate. The last such case was the fire north of Escondido which cut off the Valley Center exchange from the world for over 24 hours. Previous to that Palomar Mountain was cut off for almost 10 days without phone service when the mountain burned. We do hope that our members will use the autopatches from time to time so that we know that they are working properly and that YOU kNOW HOW TO USE THEM. You need to remember that you and the FCC will be applying the above TWO rules to each call. The FCC sometimes moves with 11 ghtn i ng speed. If a TV transmi tting tower does not have the proper lights, I understand that EVERYONE on the tower (including amateurs) can be fined even though it is not their tower and they are on the tower free. It is our understanding that an amateur radio bulletin board recently was fined $300 for having a file listing a NO NO telephone number and all digipeaters repeating the bullet1ng board received FCC citations - WOW! Fortunately the FCC has TOO many other things to do than breathing down amateurs necks but if someone monitoring the amateur operation complains to the FCC, then the FCC could strike rapidly! - BK If you have troubles with any of the autopatches or need the codes, please contact W9FQN by phone (not autopatch) or come to the next meeting for personal instruction. So far we have observed proper autopatch use with only a few minor problems involving amateurs using the wrong control codes. - BK Remember that for All autopatches you need 107.2Hz and to say - - push mic switch - 1) N6YZZ(your call) ACCESS PATCH 2) dial proper 3-digit ·up· access code->Encinitas/Vista/Fallbrook Your Someday SCOPE -MAR '91 EXEC MTG THU 14th 1930Hr.

For Oceanside select the WA6IPD/R autopatch when in or near FallbrOOk. On KA6UAI/R use the Vista patch (WB6FMT) for Oceanside although it is possible to use the Encinitas KA6UAI patch. As soon as the new repeater is SCOPE-HAR'91 available for 146.730 (W6NWG/R) we will probably move the WB6FMT patch over there so that not all of the patch traffic ends up on Erik's KA6UAI/R machine (147.130). - BK - We would like to suggest that you load your memories as follows for ea sy reference: Transceiver (HT) memories (without reverse switch) (with) II 146.5205, ARRL Calling freQ 11 12 146.535s. club simplex 12 13 146.130+. input to 13 14 146.730-, W6NWG/R 13 15 147.130+. 107.2, KA6UAI/R 14 16 147.730-. input to 14 17 146.175+, 107.2, WA6IPD/R 15 18 146.775-, input to 17 If you have a REVERSE switch, leave out 13. 16. 18. and compress the list.
