EchoLink: VK3IRL-R.
VKLink: 1335
Usage: Available for general use.
Notes: This channel is full duplex capable on all codecs.
The standard IRLP code for connecting to reflectors doesn't support
full duplex. However, if your hardware supports full duplex, and
you know how to write a custom_decode entry to connect full duplex
to the reflector, you're more than welcome to experiment. Echolink
doesn't support full duplex, to my knowledge. Third party
implementations may vary.
