Re: DD Mode experimenters in BC?
|
I’m going to have to question the “full duplex” concept for the repeater. DD mode has a extremely fast T/R switch time and it doesn’t become hard to just take two ID1s and put them back to back on different frequencies and make them seem
as if the are full duplex, but they are actually half duplex.

Thank you for the pointer and the generosity and foresight of archiving the Yahoo Group. I will spelunk the archives for the info.
As I related in today’s issue of Zero Retries, I’m 20+ years late to the ID-1 / DD mode party, so I’ll be trying to learn things that you veterans have long forgotten.

When I converted this 开云体育 group from the original Yahoo group I spent the big bucks to preserve the Membership, Message Log & Files.?
There are numerous messages and also files in the Files section folders some from the early days of D-STAR.?
I remember previous discussion about the ID-1 repeater in BC, however I haven't been able to find any reference to it.?
However, I did find a document in the?Digital Voice (DV) Repeaters & Data (DD) Access Points?folder of the group's Files section regarding a Bent Pipe repeater using two ID-1s.?
I've also copied, Erik, NY9D who has extensive experience with D-STAR DD (high-speed data) and he has previously posted about using two ID-1s to make a repeater.?

I would like to get in touch with some folks in British Columbia that
built a DD repeater from a pair of ID-1 radios. That repeater, unlike
the "official" Icom DD repeater, was full duplex (because it used the
novel concept of a full time receiver and a full time transmitter).
I *know* they existed... I just can find ANY mention of them online.
ANY pointers appreciated, even if just from memory of people or names.
