WIRES-II Round Table QSO Room Registration
2nd.Feb.2012.
The Round Table QSO Room feature of Version 3.11 of WIRES-II is a much-anticipated addition to the functionality of WIRES-II. As with any new feature, there are new conditions and limitations to understand before beginning operation, and your attention is directed to the information below. We hope and trust that you and your friends will enjoy the addition of a Round Table QSO Room to your node.

WIRES-II Round Table QSO Room Capacity Information

1. The WIRES-II Round-Table QSO Room feature operates only with Version 3.11 or later versions of the WIRES-II software.

2. Compared to regular WIRES-II operation, there is significantly more computer activity involved in Round-Table QSO operation, and therefore the computer specifications are more sophisticated. We recommend the use of WindowsR 2000 or later OS, a Pentium 3/500 MHz system, and at least 128 MB of memory. The Round Table QSO Room may function on a lesser system, but performance may not be optimal. Please check your system before downloading/installing the Round-Table QSO Room software, to ensure compatibility.

3. Depending on the computers used in the connecting nodes, and the number of nodes connecting to your Round Table QSO Room, there may be instances where audio quality is degraded somewhat. You may need to restrict the number of nodes capable of checking into your Round Table QSO Room, based on the above limitations. Use of a high speed line, above ADSL8M, will significantly improve throughput and Round Table QSO Room system performance.

Examples of Round-Table QSO Room Use Topics

You may wish to look at the list of Round-Table QSO Rooms, to see if there is a Room corresponding to your own interests. If so, you may not need to start one yourself.

1. If not, we invite you to start one! Typical topics might include DX, Internet linking, antique radios, mobile installations, computers, sports, you name it! We recommend that you put some information out about your QSO Room, so users will be able to determine which Room they would like to enter (so they also will avoid tying up capacity on the wrong Room).

2. You may also wish to do a periodic Roll Call, so as to see which nodes are also actively connected, and which may be somewhat gidleh at the moment, so you, as the Round Table QSO Room moderator, can manage the Roomfs capacity better.
