EchoRepeat  

 

This turns your EchoLink gateway into a duplex repeater without the need for any external repeater controller logic.  This program is nowhere near as complicated or advanced as K1RFD's excellent EchoStation software, but is designed as a very basic add-on to EchoLink.  This script is a re-work of the one from the EchoLink Yahoo Group.  I've added a Courtesy ID and Closedown ID (they can be CW or WAV files) to the script.  Simply router your RX audio into your Line Input and TX audio to the transmitter as usual - Ensure that the Line In is set to "play through" on the Mixer Playback Settings (ie: line-in is heard on the speaker outputs).  This ensures that when the transmitter is keyed, the audio from the receiver is passed to EchoLink and heard on RF.
