Actually they did an "okay" job on the radios, JARL did a really piss-poor job on the streaming standard, and Icom REALLY screwed up the distribution of a Linux server... (Build Apache from SOURCE CODE as a normal way to distribute the software?! Really Icom? Okay, welcome back to the 80s... thanks...) So it's not just about the selling... I like D-STAR as a not-very-well-designed "first try" and use it... but it's seriously technologically flawed. Some of that can be fixed... other things like the header information not being interlaced... -- Nate Duehr, WY0X n...@natetech.com
