I'm new with IRLP.
I stumbled upon a local node/ 3481.

Anyone mess around with IRLP?

I have used the IRLP connections on the two UHF WW7SEA repeaters in Seattle (444.550 & 444.700) to call friends back home in Chicago when I am out and about on portable. The delay takes a little getting use to, especially when going from radio to repeater to remote repeater to destination radio. When I'm home I use Echolink via my PC instead of going over the local air.

You found one of TIG's nodes! He has several scattered about in North Idaho. It's pretty simple to use. All nodes are a 4 digit number. Key the PTT and dial the node number (xxxx) you want to contact. It should/will come up and tell you "Node number xxxx link active". I'm pretty sure he uses "73" to disconnect but some people use "##" like they do with EchoLink. If I remember, that is a Simplex node up there. Can you hear it pretty well?

Great on the base, spotty with the HT.
The machine is at N7MNK's house. About 20 clicks south and around a mountain.
(Everything is around a mountain here).
TIG also has one in Newport.
