D-STAR Training Available at Dayton 2013
DSTARinfo.com and the Georgia D-STAR group will again conduct training for beginning and intermediate D-STAR users during Dayton Hamvention 2013.? The three hour class will be held at the Drury Inn Ballroom, conveniently located in the Hamvention hotel area at 6616 Miller Lane.? The class will begin promptly at 8:00am.
This training will provide the basics for new D-STAR users guiding them through the registration process, getting on the air and get the most out of handhelds or mobiles.? More experienced users will benefit from topics including the DV Dongle, DV Access Point, making a hotspot with a Raspberry Pi, D-STAR nets, using D-STAR's high and low speed data features including the ID-1 radio, and where to find D-STAR resources to get the most out of D-STAR. ?
Class size is limited and pre-registration is required.? The cost of the class is $15.00 and all attendees will receive all course materials.? To register and pay class fee by PayPal, go to . For more info, email info@....

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.

Re: The DVAP and Using D-STAR Low & High Speed Data Presentations at ARRL/TAPR DCC 2012
Yes, been there! I'm able to send my message with every PTT from both the ID-1 and 9100, and I have a number of messages programmed that I switch between when I travel to other areas (location, email addy, etc). Using the software to set this function is definitely the way to go!

The mounting bracket for the IC-2200H/2300H fits the ID-1 perfectly with no modification necessary, MB-28H $27.95 from Universal radio.

Hello,
I am trying to find a mounting bracket for my ID-1 (the transceiver itself) It seems the MB-17A listed in the manual is discontinued.
What is the replacement mounting bracket and suggestions on where to order? HRO/AES/Giga/etc.
Thank you.

Kerry, Thanks for the idea. ?I had thought of using aluminum angle iron for the 90* brackets.
I would think that icom would consider making a piece of bent metal for EVERY production line radio ?:)
Oh we'll, we are in a niche space aren't we...
Thanks again!

Hi Bill, I did some work with Splat for linux a while ago generating a coverage chart here locally. less than 1.58uV was the figure I found, so I rounded up to -100dBm. Have a look at my post from the 10th and 31'st Jan. Cheers John EI7IG It seemed to work pretty well.

For initial testing, I¡¯d definitely recommend testing from a position where you can see the repeater antennas.

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 set your Router or Computer, with manual settings
GATEWAY IP server 10.0.0.1
Primary DNS should also be 10.0.0.1
The Sub should be 255.0.0.0
You could set the secondary DNS to any Public Free DNS server example 208.67.222.222
When you registered your call for D-Star, your call was assigned a group of IP addresses, your router should also be assigned one of these addresses
Something like 10.105.XXX.XXX
The beauty of using a router is that you could leave your computer set to auto IP settings so you do not have to change all your IP settings when you switch back to your home service.
It would also allow more then one computer to use the connection.
So find an old router. I use a WIFI router. One cables from ID-1 to the router everything else wireless.
YOU MUST USE THE OLDER FORMAT IP SETTINGS IN WINDOWS 7 THIS IS CALLED IPV4. I do not believe that the IPV6 settings can work.

best way to set up the rig is with a computer. however i have to use an xp mchn, because i cant find 64 bit drivers.
to work martinsville dont even try if you do not have a good siginal
check out the sig on 1.2 dv first.
1284.000 dv neg split down 12.000
settings for nj2dg DD
freq 1250.000
mode DD
RP RPS Must be RPS
offset 0.000
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

Hi Jim,
I am in Bayonne which is close to Newark Airport. I can hit NJ2DG 2m DV repeater with 5 Watts on an HT (92AD). I have two ID-1's and would like try DD on that repeater. Can you tell me what settings you use for this?
73's

Hey it worked. I was very lucky, after the storm, I only lost power for three days. My cable (internet) also down. It looks like all the batteries in the green amp boxes up on the poles were dead. My 3g/4g sprint device was also down. My last resort 1.2ghz DD. A real big thank you to the guys at NJ2DG, Martinsville NJ. Sure I couldent surf the net but the connection worked fine for email and facebook. Using a cradlepoint wireless access point. My wife (kb2eyn) my self (ka2oon) and my daughter were all able to stay connected, sending and receiving welfare reports.
Other things like, generator, patch type TV antenna, made the aftermath no big deal, for us here.
Thanks again to the guys that run the Martinsville Stack, at NJ2DG
