Configuring d-Rats for a Reflector?
|
Occasionally I see someone in the Chat tab say "XYZ Net on REF30C" or "AB1ABC is explaining the meaning of life on REF004C". So how to I get to REF30C or REF004C (which I assume are "reflectors") in D-Rats? Or can I? I've checked the on-line documentation but don't see it. I've looked on the DSTAR pages and don't see anything jump out about how to navigate to a specific reflector within d-Rats (which suggests to it's not possible - but I don't want to miss something). Any suggestions or a URL to the documentation?
Thanks! KK4LAC Bob |

Dear Bob, ? One way would be to use the low speed data capability on D-Star radios and to use the RF segment capability in D-RATS.? If you have a D-Star radio with a cable connected to your PC with D-RATS running, you can enable in your Preferences a connection to your D-Star radio (and other radios also).? Once enabled. your chat (where you must select your D-Star radio as outgoing in the lower left), messaging and file transfer are all done over the D-Star radio.? And if you have connected your D-Star radio to another D-Star Repeater or a Reflector, voila.? It works at 1200 bps.

Thanks John. I think it's as I suspected. I need to get there through RF. d-Rats on a PC through the ratflector by itself won't get to the reflectors. No problem (assuming I can get to DOC, BTI, or SBA from Waleska). 880H will be here tomorrow or Thursday. Tom KG4VUB sent me a sample icf file and I'll also download one of the "Localized Memory downloads" from dstarinfo.com to get set up.
