Hi Tom,
Thanks for the reply. I have looked at the webpage, and it seems pretty
straight forward. Can you (or anyone on the list) walk me through the menu
settings to make sure that I have them correct? I am not quite sure where to
locate the C1 message on the 91ad.

Hi,
I'm getting closer to getting a D-Star capable rig, most likely the V82 (mainly
for the low entry price).
I just wanted to check a few things...
1) It looks like the serial port is wired direct to the UT-118 module and
connected with a 2.5mm stereo jack to D9 (or D25). Does this need a

An extra US$60 gets you a true dual band (simultaneous VHF/UHF for FM,
D-STAR on one side only at a time)

Your statement is silly because it's just as easy for me to do the same thing
on voice. Callsigns are hijacked on voice all the time.
Just because it can be done some other way doesn't mean that standard

So I guess if you want to get down to nitpicking, if the callsign is not
in the field then you need to make sure to switch your radio to FM and
identify appropriately.
Actually the opposite is true...
Recent FCC cases have affirmed that, for

having a publicly documented protocol.
One might wonder why the DSTAR protocol is published at the ARRL

understanding that the protocol is

Not for the everyday ham, but I believe this is the first test unit that works
with DSTAR.
1) It looks like the serial port is wired direct to the UT-118 module and
connected with a 2.5mm stereo jack to D9 (or D25). Does this need a level
shifter?
I found the service manual which shows the circuit for the UT-118 contains a
MAX232, so input to radio is RS232 levels.
