Re: D-rats over XLX reflector

D-RATS uses the low speed data portion of the D-STAR data stream. In my experience, not all hotspots pass D-STAR low speed data (DV Tool, for example). Since GPS data is also sent as low speed data, you can test the path by enabling GPS on your radio and trade position reports with another station which has GPS enabled on their radio. If you can send and receive GPS reports with the other station, then your hotspot should be able to send D-RATS data also. Patrick (N3TSZ)

A hotspot allows any radio to communicate over any type of reflector or repeater gateway. The purpose of a reflector is to allow all connected stations to communicate with each other. Hope that helps. :> --Dan Dan Goldstein KJ6KEU ARRL ARES East Bay Section Emergency Coordinator kj6keu@... -or- dgold94544@... On Fri, Apr 9, 2021 at 5:51 AM <es4rm@...> wrote: Hi All. A newbie question. Does it possible to run d-rats on-air exchange through not physical repeater, but through XRF or XLX reflector using hotspot? all station in the same ratflector on the net.
