  • Page 3: What Is Wires-X

    What is WIRES-X? WIRES (Wide-coverage Internet Repeater Enhancement System) is an Internet communication system which expands the range of amateur radio communication. By relaying radio signals via the Internet, stations can be connected where radio waves cannot reach each other. WIRES uses local nodes (stations connected to the Internet via PCs) as access points which repeat communications of conventional amateur radio stations.
