There may be some smoke.

However, there are products such as the ThumbDV from NW Digital Radio (and other dongles that contain an AMBE chip) that allow the use of software such as BlueDV that allow one to use any device such as a smartphone or PC, so piping a 2m HT’s signal from a digirig or similar device doesn’t seem like too far of a stretch, but it would be far easier to just get a digital handheld and/or use the audio in/out of the computer to which the ThumbDV (or other device) was connected.?
Some people, myself included on occasion, just like to see if it can be done, regardless of the ultimate feasibility of the solution.

So yeah… most likely possible. Not the most user-friendly solution, and convoluted, but not much more convoluted than a DMR->D-STAR gateway on a hotspot, since an AMBE chip is required for that also. (Analog->Digital is not available on the Openspot 4 Pro, from what I understand.)
?
Once my brain heals and I catch up on other projects I might give it a try.
