The outage for the past day or so was caused by an IRLP software update. The fix was released back in April, but the problem would only show up when the node was rebooted. Guess what. I rebooted it yesterday and the problem showed up. I guess I've never rebooted it since the update was pushed out by IRLP last year.
The Northern Ontario Hamfest is this coming Saturday September 24th 2011 in Garson. I have 2 spare seats in my vehicle if anyone wants a ride over. We would be leaving from the McKeown-Goremanville Rd area at 0700ET. If you want a ride drop me a line at nbarc@ciinet.org or ve3maf@gmail.com .
