Echolink connection issues 2 April 2023 - GRHub Network, Mossel Bay


 

I would like to apologize for the break in transmission this morning on the GRHub Network, Mossel Bay.  Several Echolink dropouts were experienced this morning relating to the following broadcasts:

  • During the Afrikaans SARL Bulletin
  • During the Pretoria Amateur Radio Bulletin
  • During the Amateur Radio Today Broadcast

All indications are that Echolink would just dropout where-after it takes quite a while to re-establish a connection.  I do not have any explanation or indication what caused the dropouts.  All time out timers are disconnected and no changes were made to any settings.  Pure speculation:

  • Intenet connection lost
  • Power outages
  • Other technical issues.

Well let's hope that Murphy has moved on and that there are no more technical issues.
