A $50/year donation supports Seigler Peak internet, power, and autopatch.
Donors may register three personal phone numbers for the inbound whitelist. Those numbers can call 707-355-4261 (707-355-HAM1) and be answered on the 442.875 repeater.
Identify with your callsign on the air.
US only. Callsign is checked against the FCC database (Callook) before payment.
Your last name must match the FCC license (nicknames / different first names are fine). Full-name equality is not required.
Payment auto-activates after PayPal clears when your callsign matches this registration (usually within minutes; whitelist syncs daily).
What the whitelist means
Only those three registered numbers are allowed to dial the autopatch phone number 707-355-4261 (707-355-HAM1).
When one of those numbers calls, voip.ms accepts the call and bridges it onto the 442.875 Seigler Peak UHF AllStar repeater so the caller is on the air.
Calls from any other number are rejected / not connected — this is not a public dial-in.
The three numbers are typically the donor’s own cell/home lines (or family lines they control). They are not three simultaneous patches — they are three Caller ID numbers allowed to open the patch.
Membership/support period is one year from payment; renew $50/year to keep the three numbers active.
After expiry without renew, the numbers are removed from the whitelist on the next daily sync.
How to call in / what to expect
After payment clears, call 707-355-4261 (707-355-HAM1) from one of your three whitelisted numbers.
When the call answers there will be silence at first — that is normal (no greeting prompt).
It is VOX operation: speak to key the repeater; pause/silence unkeys. Do not expect a traditional phone “beep then talk” prompt.
Identify with your callsign on the air (442.875).
When finished, hang up cleanly — hanging up the phone drops the inbound phone→RF patch. (If you came in the other way via RF autopatch, use *62 to bring the patch down.)
US numbers only. Keep calls short and use normal repeater courtesy.

What you need (how we check)
Valid FCC callsign — looked up automatically via Callook
Your last name matches the FCC license (first name / nickname may differ)
Email — required (helps match PayPal if needed)
Phone number 1 — required (whitelist Caller ID)
Optional: phone 2 and phone 3 — up to three whitelist numbers total.
Pay $50 stays gray until the four checks above are green. Then it turns blue and works.
Nicknames are fine for the first name. We never require your full typed name to equal the FCC name — only the last name.
Street address stays private on Ben’s roster. This page shows city/state only after lookup.
