Just a point of clarity here, DSTAR1 and DSTAR2 are not the same thing, but they go the same place. If something was amiss with the server DSTAR1 runs on, DSTAR2 would get you the same audio path as DSTAR1 would. They are designed this way for users who may have a better connection to one or the other based on latency/jitter/etc.

No the only big tings I have on Call Sign Routing and Smart Groups is 1: if linked to a reflector UNLINK first 2: DO NOT go back to "Use reflector" remain on DSTAR1 3: Save DSTAR1 and DSTAR1 T in Your Call Memories (to save having to reenter them all the time)
DSTAR1 or DSTAR2 same thing
NOTE: Quadnet can be a pain Note also press transmit.. Then draw a breath. THEN put your call out PHONETICALLY. Quick key may not work.
I"ve done it. a few times. but for other reasons I normally connet to Quadnet via XRF757A.. Qnetgateway will connect to the XLX refletor that's on Quadnet (Pi-Star would not) (THe reason is I use crontab to make most of my reflector changes.. Automatically... This is an advantage because I never forget to switch reflectors but.. if I"m in a QSO at the appointed minute.. Change happens anyway. )
Need a "2 minute warning" alert I can send to the radio to help with that :)

John, Thanks for the tips and the step by step. I look forward to trying them out in great detail tomorrow (actually, later today (Monday)). If you have any additional ideas please send. See my reply to Tom regarding partial success Sunday. Thanks again! 73 -- Dale L Puckett K0HYD Goddard, KS 67052 Member Society of Professional Journalists
