ABOUT THE
MEGA-LINK REPEATER SYSTEM
Provided
and maintained as a public service by (WA5IHL) Paul Choc and associates;
conceived in late 1992 with the first link from Sandia Crest to Mesa Rica in
1993 and expanding ever since. The
Mega-Link repeater network covers a major portion of the State of New Mexico as
well as portions of six surrounding states. As of the date of this paper it
consists of 37 repeaters on 35 mountains. The repeaters are “hard-linked”, so
that a contact made with one of the repeaters is heard on all 36 repeaters in
the system. One should wait before speaking approximately 2 to 3 seconds
from the time you push the mic button. This gives the system the time it
needs to link all machines. The Mega-Link is essentially one repeater with a
huge area of coverage. The
Mega-Link provides the Upper Rio FM Society, Inc. access to the system for the
Upper Rio phone-patch facility. (Full Members Only) It also allows them to link
the Mega-Link to URFMSI repeaters and vice versa.

NEW CHANGES: Mesa Rica Voice and Links seem to be down. Expect sites that are linked to it to be stand-alone. Waiting on snow melting to get to some of these places. We have made 3 attempts to get into the Sandia shack alone with no success.
