Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Randy, All three radios have unique callsigns in them both at the radio level and then matched in their respective copy of D-RATS running on 3 separate Windows 10 machines. The ICOM repeater is true

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Ron, I was under the impression that D-RATS came out of the D-STAR world, but maybe I need to learn more of its history. Indeed we could set up several stations as relay points. However, we do

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Hi WB3ILX/ Ron DRATS was designed for HF. If you have some folks in your group that must be on 2 meters can you set several control stations to act as relay points. You might also investigate VarAC

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Hi Mike... Did the three radios have different and unique callsigns in them?? You didn't say. Is this an authentic ICOM D-STAR repeater?? You said no gateway...but nothing else about the

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
I removed the repeater from the setup and ran everything as simplex and all works fine. This however makes use of this software for EmComm purposes very limited for the 1700 square km that my team

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Glen, Thank you for the explanation of the color coding of the callsigns in the Stations column. In my situation, because there is some kind of issue with the communications between these three

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
The radios I am working with are all older models. D-STAR ready The ID-880H provides D-STAR DV mode digital voice and low-speed data communications. The IC-80AD supports the D-STAR “DV” mode,

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Ron, There is no SignalinkUSB involved here, though I do use them for Winlink Packet and VARA FM occasionally, but not at this time for this use case. I am also intrigued by the comment "Also when

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Mike, When a ping comes back with the station’s callsign in black, it indicates that the station just recently signed off. Those in blue are online or on the air. The reason to know that a station

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Hi this Ron / WB3ILX, If you are using a Signal link or any device in the 6 pin mini din on the 880H just plugging the device in puts the 899H into analog FM mode. At least it does on mine. Just

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Please also be aware that there are 2 data modes in D-Star: DV low speed and DV ligh speed. DV high speed is not supported by all radios, while low speed is supported by all of them.

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
Marius, Thanks for the swift response. I did think that was the issue I was seeing, Two radios both trying to respond simultaneously to a single CQCQCQ. I have now removed one of the radios and the

Re: Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
This is a consequence of the CDMA concept in D-Star data transmissions and to the fact that the radio's "are all programmed the same except for callsign". The radios will check both that the channel

Inconsistent CQCQCQ responses
I am testing out D-RATS for my local club from an EmComm perspective, because we bought into D-STAR a while back and have a large number of ID-880H and IC-80AD radios and I want t put them to use. I

D-Rats over Repeater
Our weekly group uses a nice Icom repeater stack for D-Rats practice weekly. We have found chat is fine, but file transfers are slower and less reliable over the repeater than simplex. We suspect a

Re: Icom 9700 via USB only
I had the same issue with my 7100 via USB. I called Icom and got a guy who knew the whole story. The USB cable sends out serial in packet format, so it sends it in bursts of data. A short "chat" line

Icom 9700 via USB only
Has anyone been able to successfully use D-RATS with the 9700 using just a USB cable? I'm able to get the radio to TX when I start D-RATS, but it TXs multiple times non-stop until it eventually stops.

The MSYS2 distribution for Microsoft Windows no longer supports 32 bit machines, and will be dropping Windows 7 support sometime this year, if they have hot yet done so. I have not tested on a 32 bit
