After recently becommning involved in Dstar i figured HRD should have a section for it given the amount of people who actually use the method for communication.
I have learned so much regarding Dstar over the last few months in respect as to what it actually is and what it can offer within Ham radio.
Yes many will say it is not real radio, however i am looking at it as another mode and not a replacement for Hf or VHF/UHF .
For many it is a way to gain worlwide communication via the internet using a Handheld or dongle or both.
Either way its offerings are vast and hopefully this section will grow and help show how and what is in Dstar comms.
If you are already involved with Dstar feel free to share your knowledge and if your new to Dstar and stuck then ask and we can hopefully sort it out.
Share your dealings with Different Radios and how you found them to operate.
Maybe like me your delving into setting up your own gateway, share what you learned
I would like this section to grow like many other on HRD and become a good source of help and Knowledge regarding Dstar and im sure it will be over time.
For instance what system / repeaters would I be able to use with the Yaesu FTM-400? I take it that it isn't DSTAR compatible?
