Nick and David,

You might also wish to reach out to Mark, WA4KFZ. He is a major organizer and “network manager” for the Marine Corps Marathon in DC. They use several layers of voice and data.

Our local ACS group uses D-RATS direct and through our local D-Star repeater. Works well.

I am very interested in you experience as I am working the IRONMAN 2022 TRIATH this sunday. We will be experimenting with D-STAR as the primary mode. D-RATS is the logical follow on. September is the annual 3 day 90 mile canoe race where we will also be experimenting. Hope all works well for you! Very excited for your thoughts. I know in the past we used the mapping portion of D-RATS heavily to plot the courses and allow aid stations to map issues, accidents and injuries. Total situational awareness for all not just Net Control. No more incessecent " WHAT'S YOUR LOCATION"

port 9000 worked, thank you.

I'm volunteering a endurance running event (50k miles, 8000ft elevation climb, in the heat) and d-rats seems like a great solution.? I've used APRS, FlDIGI, JS8CALL, others.? ?This one is simple enough and I like that any tech can fire up a D-Star radio and create a local network with chat, files, etc. without too much configuration.? We shall see.
