I'm looking at this, as I'm now using a TC4 and thus also the internal ALE.

?

What do folk think about the F8101 ALE implementation vs. ION2G? I suspect the latter is better at linking under marginal conditions, based on some observation, but I'm not entirely sure. If the F8101 ALE implementation is a downgrade, then I'd likely look for another solution.

I have ceased to use the internal ALE in my F8101. I use Ion2g exclusively. It is just better. And it isn't just the decoder, it is everything about the software: directory, multiple networks, sharing LQA data between channels in the same band, etc. Ion2g is just head-and-shoulders above any of the hardware-radio-based 2G ALE systems I have used, and that is not just Icom. It is Barrett and Codan as well. Their advantage is one box and possibly 3G ALE ... if your network is constrained enough to use it.
