MB7ICM on the air

The latest Chelmsford Echolink node MB7ICM is now on the air. Built and run by Anthony, M1FDE, this node provides Echolink coverage of mid-Essex on 6 metres.

Anthony managed to get the node operational in time for the World Scout Jamboree at Hylands Park, Chelmsford, which will be attended by over 40,000 scouts - among them a number of licenced Radio Amateurs.

MB7ICM operates on a frequency of 50.530 MHz FM and uses a 110.9 Hz CTCSS tone. The node number is 276252.

Anthony was also involved with getting the 2-metre Echolink node MB7IDA operational and is one of the tutors for the Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society's Ham Radio courses.

Details of future courses are available from the training organiser Clive G1EUC
