Hello and welcome to the Epping Forest Simplex Cluster (EFSC). Home to MB7IMS, MB7AMS (Now retired) and MB7RMS (Now retired) simplex nodes. At the present time the NoV holder is M9TTL (Mitchell formerly 2E0EMO). The nodes are provided as best effort (slightly still experimental) and we do not 100% uptime but we try.
We do welcome reports sent to keeper@efsc.co.uk. Where we can we do try and figure out what is going wrong or how to help.
There are many ways to build nodes and some may be better than others.
Simple question: Why Simplex Nodes
Simple answer, M9TTL only holds a intermediate license. This means he can only build simplex nodes and is restricted to what. At the present time M7TTL has no plans to study for a full license.
