As I said in my intro post, I have the
following M17 hardware:
Gateway:
MMDVM (both hotspot and modem with
external radios).
Client/user:
MMDVM with M17Client and 9600 capable radio.
Module1 with 9600 capable radio.
TNC3 with updated firmware and Android app with 9600 capable
radio.
RT3S (not yet modded).
PlutoSDR with SDR++ (Rx only).
I have demonstrated the first two at
hamfests.
Other hardware known to work:
MMDVM hotspot (will work with M17Client or DroidStar).
Select Icom radios with Micro17.
Of course, MD380/380UV and clones with
OpenRTX and hardware mods.
AngelSDR has M17 support, but is quite
buggy, not recommended.

Than you all for joining this list! I
hoped for maybe a dozen of us and we¡¯re comfortably past that.
I¡¯ll be at least another day before I can actively

I currently do not have any M17 capable gear other
than a pair of MMDVM boards for Raspberry Pi.
What I hope to be able to promote to our fellow
hams is current hardware that is capable of M17 over RF.
By current I mean hardware that is in production
and purchasable by other hams. It doesn¡¯t have to be native M17
- just known that can be modified (with available instructions)
such as the Icom radios or the OpenRTX portables.
I think that a comprehensive list of RF capable hardware will
strongly make the case for M17.?
So please share with what you have, and what you
know that¡¯s capable of M17 RF.
Thanks,
