You are right. You can bring a horse to water, but
he will not drink it unless he knows how it is made and
he can modified the taste and the color. hmmmm

If I can't duplicate the codec .... understand the codec ... improve the
codec ... whether a ham developed it or not is irrelevant.

Last question. Do you know for a fact that
the AMBE codecs was not developed by
a ham radio operator for that company???
A lot of hams are in that business.

An example of an enhancement to the radio art would be PSK31 for
example.
Created by an amateur radio operator used by amateur radio operators.
An
amazing technology for weak signal work. Multiple conversations tacking
place in a single SSB "channel."
Don't misinterpret what I'm saying ... D-STAR is neat .... but if I (or
someone smarter than me) can't fabricate it from core technologies it
can't
be fully understood or improved upon. Which is what this hobby is
suppose
to be about.

Either you have not used Dstar before or have not used it
in a long time.
Have your tried to send a picture with Dstar??
Have you chatted voice and text as the same time??
Have you tried to surf the web with DStar.
Have you used DRats for Emergencies, trainings or other exercises
???
Just to mention a few things that add to the enhancement of the
radio art!!!!!!

"To help the non beleiver.. "
Well I guess it official ... it's now become a religious argument.
D-STAR is the "fast-food" of amateur radio (much the same way
repeaters
are
... but I digress)
I'm not arguing the technical merits .... but it does not enhance
the
radio
art ... it does not promote innovation ...
Sure you can buy a radio ... plug it in .... program it or what
ever
you
need to do to get on "the net" and talk to someone .... you've
learned
nothing and you've given nothing back.
The spectrum we use is very valuable .... if we're not generating
any
value
for what we've been entrusted with it's going to be sold off to the
highest
bidder.

To help the non beleiver.. just read this:
http://www.eham.net/articles/30174
And yes telephone and satellite phone are available but if one
choose
to
use DSTAR it is relevant to discredit him? If you think something
has no place im amateur radio just don't use it and let those who
wants
to
use it enjoy one of the most reliable digital communication
protocol available. Yes some will say DMR, MotoTRBO are better
it's
just
to say competition is already present.
The cost question.
You can already interface a lot of recent HF transceiver to DSTAR
for
700$
and much less if you are technicaly inclined.See below it's just
an example and i'm not connected to their business.

you.+Your+information+has+been+submitted
I don't know where this "I don't use it and as i think it's not
Ham
radio
no one should use it" trend come from but it's getting old...
I'm an avid DSTAR user just put my call sing in your URCALL and
you
will
be able to reach me all over the globe. If you don't like the
internet component you better to go back to the cave man, or you
don't
live on my planet.
Just let folks live free...
