Re: D-Star Repeaters covering the Salt Lake Valley and beyond

Dstarusers shows WA7GIE but no gateway according to the database.? The Utah VHF Society shows one near Logan too.? Tom NY4I Principal Solutions Architect Better Software Solutions, Inc.? 727-437-2771 On Sep 1, 2012, at 2:11 PM, "loadbox8thrun" <ron.hyte@...> wrote:

D-Star Repeaters covering the Salt Lake Valley and beyond
loadbox8thrun
I'm wondering if someone could report what they know about the status of our D-Star repeaters that we have located in and around the salt lake valley. Are there any repeaters that have a working Gateway, and are there any repeaters that are working just as repeaters without a Gateway. Would it be possible to have a group or club maintenance fee to help support the Gateways?
Thanks |

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. D-STAR 23cm Group |

ID-1s and Linked/ Gateway/Reflector Repeaters in Minneapolis

And the fact that our emergency data network is not on the Internet by design might be a little dull.?? Don't fret- you can jump on one of several Gateway linked 1.2 DV machines we have in town, and chat with any 20,000 or so users on the more than 1000 linked repeaters out there on any band. The best system in town on 1.2 is probably Alan's - downtown Minneapolis on 1283.300.?? Set up your software to go to: Your:??CQCQCQ??Rpt1 KD0JOU A??Rpt2 KD0JOU G Linking to a reflector is the same syntax (new memory channels) with REF053AL in the "your" field and unlinking has "REF053AU" in your. The rules have been changed by the reflector folks to allow more than one deck /band on a given machine to be on the same reflector, such as the Minnesota one, REF053A.?? So we might be able to leave the 1.2 decks on 53a, and so you can talk to the 440 and 2M folks as well. ? The Statewide build-out is done, as was announced, and the last of the systems we got is currently in Fargo @NDSU, to be on the air soon on 444.000 as KD0SWQ.? ? _______________________________________________ d-star mailing list d-star@... |

Wow, a quick search of the "Pulse Electronics" website (current owner of Larsen Antenna products) shows 10 models in the "Kulglass" line NONE of them cover 1.2 Guess I'm glad I still have it...

unless it¡¯s a fiberglass top conversion van, then you¡¯re just going to have to use a lip mount or fender mounted antenna.. There are no commercial made 23cm through glass antennas. You might as well? make a ? wave roof mount non-ground plane. ? ?

My first guess on your friends ID-1 is the Com port is NOT com 6. He can verify the Com Port with the ID-! program in the "Options" menu. Then set D-Rats to that port number. This is why the ID-1 program cannot be on at the same time as D-Rats (both want the same port...). He needs to make sure the setting "DV Data TX" is "AUTO". Most likely it is, but have him check. Let me know what happens please. 73, Arnold KQ6DI ----- Original Message -----

Larsen made one in the 90's that performed very well for me. I would look there.

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI do not know if one is made or not. However, I have had nothing but bad
experiences with on the glass antennas, over the years. If it were me, I would
find an alternative.

I know I'm now working because when I type in something in the D-Rats chat screen then hit send I can see my ID-1 do an automatic Transmit. Now when working with a friend that has the very same setup we cant get his ID-1 radio to send any thing he has entered in his D-Rats chat screen. We have configured his D-Rats preference-Radio settings exactly like my settings. We have also, we think, configured his radio settings same as mine. We are also assuming that his cable is good and his comport setting are good because his computer interface for the radio respond to each other. In other words he can communicate with his radio with his computer. BOTTOM LINE can you think of anything we have missed that would prevent his D-Rats to communicate with his radio? --- In D-STAR_23cm@..., "Arnold Harding" <kq6di@...> wrote:

Re: D-Rats setup with ID-1
You set the radio for DV mode. You are not using the high speed data capabilities for D-Rats.

Yes, the computer interface software needs to be off.. RC-24? The only interface I've used is the USB cable using Com port 6. Your normal registration is fine. Ask more if you have more questions or cannot get it to work. Arnold KQ6DI ----- Original Message -----

D-Rats setup with ID-1
loadbox8thrun
Greetings everyone
I recently got an IC ID-1 radio and would like to setup D-Rats to run with it. I have read several resources on how to set the radio up and configure D-Rats. I do have some questions for settings that never seem to get mentioned. 1. Do I set the radio mode to DV or DD? 2. Do I need to shut the laptop radio interface software down and use the RC24 while running D-Rats? I assume that is what is meant in the D-Rats instructions when it states "Cannot use PC application" 3. Do I need to register my ID-1 radio on the gateway or is the original registration enough? Thanks Ron KC7WVS |
