them on charge using a solar<br />
panel.<br />
These batteries came<br />
at a good time since we were<br />
just about ready to purchase<br />
special batteries for the<br />
autopatches. They will<br />
probably be used as follows:<br />

* =autopatch access<br />
If your new rig can<br />
do "touch-tone" signaling<br />
(TT encoded squelch), you<br />
need to remember that you<br />
must identify those 3-5<br />
digit calling tones each<br />
time you transmit them so<br />
that we and the FCC know who<br />
is making the call. We know<br />
your SECRET code but we do<br />
not know to whom it belongs<br />
•••yet. Please identify so<br />
that others will recognize<br />
that it is the proper thing<br />
to do.<br />
The 146.730 repeater<br />
was shut down on three<br />
occasions the 1st week in<br />
December by control operator(s).<br />
One was accidental<br />
and the other two because of<br />
repeater content. PARC has<br />
no responsibility to allow<br />
the repeaters to repeat that<br />
which violates club policies<br />
although at times we do<br />
allow things to continue on<br />
