D-STAR 23cm Ops -

Thanks for participating in the D-STAR 23cm group.

If you're using or experimenting with D-STAR on 23m currently let the group know how you're using D-STAR
by sending a message to the group, adding a Link in the Links area and/or Uploading a File to the Files area.

Messages & articles about how you currently or plan to use the high-speed data capability would be of particualar interest to group memebers.

By the way, there are already dozens of messages in the group's message log and
numerous files & links in the Files & Links areas about all aspects of D-STAR.

Please also let other D-STAR users, including those don't yet use D-STAR on 23cm, who aren't members of the group know about the group.

[email protected]
 

Jim,
By any chance do you know if the NJ2DG repeater's DD gateway address is 10.0.0.1?

Jim,
Based on your info, I had several setting wrong. I did not have RPS set (0 offset) and in 'yourname' I had 'cqcqcq'. I did see the handshake going this time, but inet connectivity. I'll wait a few days and try it again. Thanks for the info!

Something going on with the nj2dg network conection. Dont go nuts, trying to get it to work, right now.
Once i noticed that nj2dg was not on the 20A reflector, I started to scratch my head. So i gave the dd a shot. it looks like i am handshaking with with the repeater but no internet connection. I would say keep checking the reflector status site on the net. and dont try DD until, you see the stack back on the reflector. My guess is that they have a problem with there internet connection.
Looks like Murphy is kicking you in the pants.

Thanks Jimmy! Plan on taking one of my ID1's to work this coming week and playing with these settings. Its about 17 miles from Martinsville, but I have access to the roof tops which should help. At 12 watts I think I should hit the repeater. I'll let you know how I make out.

check out the sig on 1.2 dv first.

settings for nj2dg DD

RP RPS Must be RPS

your nj2dg
rpt1 nj2dg A
rpt2 nj2dg G
on the face press the TXinh button so that TXinh is off

unless you are using d-star settings you MUST NOT have your computer ip set to static.
if all is right so far you turn on the rig go to the channel, make sure the mode is DD and txinhib is off

disable any wireless on the computer.

unplug the cat5 cable from your router to your computer.

reboot your computer.

then plug the cat5 cable from the id 1 into your computer.

if all is well you should see the power lcds flashing power in & out. if so you are hand shaking with nj2dg

you should be able to browse the net at a slow pace if all is good

I have set up a wireless router with the id 1
using the d-star static infomation email me and ill give you that info

Other things like, generator, patch type TV antenna, made the aftermath no big deal, for us here.

Re: ID-1 on 32 bit Windows 7

Can you be more specific as to which driver is giving you the error?? Also when you installed the drivers had you plugged in the ID-1 to the USB port first?? I have the ID-1 running on win7 32 bit in my shack and since I cannot recall exactly what I did to get it running I believe it was a straight forward install with the exception of accepting the serial ó USB driver as no WORL compliant for Win7

Doh!, I never thought of doing it that way.

Anyway, a question, in you guys (the list) experience, what additional loss does tree cover give.? Any rules of thumb. The reason I ask is that the road from Tramore to Waterford (which is quite weak in the plot) is actually lined with trees at both sides.?

Hi Folks,

I finally got a chance to get back to this.

So given my Antenna Gain/Coax Loss figures, I went for 40 Watts ERP and picked -100 dBm as my threshold (1.58uV + 3dB).

Obviously local factors such as tree's etc aren't taken into effect. However, based on actual testing in-the-field at a few 'edge' locations, it seems to be pretty good.

I've the output from splat available at if anyone wants to take a look with google earth

  • Banged my head on the desk.
