Each spring since 2002, the Nevada Amateur Radio Repeaters, Inc (
NARRI) has sponsored the
Annual VoIP Conference in Las Vegas. Attendees have discussed such protocols as the Internet Radio Linking Project (
IRLP). IRLP System Designer David Cameron, VE7LTD, was the keynote speaker for the first six years of the conference. The 2009 conference is open to discuss all forms of VoIP communications. This year's meeting encompasses a broader scope, including all major VoIP systems in use by the Amateur Radio community such as IRLP, EchoLink, EchoIRLP, All Star, D-Star and DV Dongle; VoIP for emergency communications will also be on the agenda.
