System 35: Oakland
Details for System 35
About the System:

CARLA 35 resides along with CARLA 5 (UHF) as well as the primary Echo-
IRLP Node & RoIP link to CARLA 13 which serves as the Shasta Ring Hub.
This is the primary site for the greater San Francisco Bay Area.


Tidbits:

CARLA 35 was previously owned by Roger Spindler, WA6AFT (SK) and
graciously donated to CARLA for integration into our network after it
needed a new home. It has been a excellent replacement due to CARLA 5's
reduced coverage from the PAVE PAWS issue.
