The Icom modules for DD are not repeaters. The ID-1 presents an Ethernet interface to plug into. ?What it does is put any Ethernet traffic it sees on its Ethernet port to RF encapsulated in a D-STAR packet. When the D-STAR packet arrives at another ID-1 (Simplex/Local) it looks at the header to see if it's addressed to it, unwraps the Ethernet packet an puts it out the Ethernet port. If it goes to a RP2D (DD Module) it is directed to the controller, which can switch it to another module (based on RPT1/RPT2) or send it to the gateway. ?When it arrives at the gateway it looks at the UR which will: Send the traffic to a remote D-STAR radio (ID-1) if the UR is set to a station (e.g. ?WF7R ? A) through the last remote gateway where that station was heard. or If your is set to the callsign associated with the gateway, it will unwrap the Ethernet packet and send it out the Internet facing Ethernet port, where if the IP address is on the public Internet the router will NAT it out to the Internet. So on the RF side, its basically all simplex (though going through the RP2D you set it to RPS which is repeater mode with 0 as the offset, there's a bit in the D-STAR header that needs to be set) -- just treat it as such. ?(Line of sight for the most part.) --- In D-STAR_23cm@..., "dave_mw0ruh" wrote:
