The “North Central Texas Connection (NCTC),” is a continuing work in progress. Without you, the donors, our technical staff and the various repeater owners and trustees, this system could never exist.

Most of the system is interconnected either by (420 Mhz.) full duplex links or NXU’s (Internet Extension Units “Wires & EchoLink”).

Our primary objective is to provide a backup system for the National Weather Service and their weather spotters during times of inclement weather. Please Read: “System Protocol”.

The secondary purpose is to provide for you the Amateur Radio Operator a way to communicate in the Dallas/ Ft.Worth metro area and the surrounding cities providing for technical talk and typical idle time chat.

Numerous long hours, weekends, donations of equipment and funding have allowed us to create this project. We hope you enjoy the system as much as we have enjoyed taking old equipment and giving it a new purpose. We look forward to hearing from you, and hope you enjoy this valuable resource.

Nice enhancement this morning. KB5WB in Eastland was full quieting into Nevada 444.625 and 444.825 in Sulphur Springs. Then was able to get into 145.11 FLG repeater in Sulphur Springs.

Just under 200 miles per Google Maps from KB5WB's QTH at Lake Leon to Sulphur Springs repeater site. ... See MoreSee Less
