Happy V Day to all, Even after last night's BVARC N5VCX presentation (Thank you, Mike), I was still a bit confused. Not that I want to run out and get a DMR radio, but just that I want to understand the technology and more importantly the application and just how this fits into the Ham Radio world that I know. I found that not knowing the nomenclature or terminology was my biggest road block. (ie Code Plug, Zones, etc.)
So I found this web page article -- link below. It is all inclusive and* it is succinct*. Gets to the point in an informational flow that makes sense and easy (for me, an analog ham) to understand. Hope it does for you too. *https://www.jeffreykopcak.com/2017/05/10/dmr-in-amateur-radio-terminology/ <https://www.jeffreykopcak.com/2017/05/10/dmr-in-amateur-radio-terminology/> * Remember, please, this is not analog radio, it is digitized voice and control data bit streams being modulated to be sent over an RF channel. Kind of like RTTY but much faster. All set-up, controlled and delivered to the DMR network via the Internet and computer hardware and software. (C-Bridges, etc.) It's all Ham Radio and, therefore, should be fun. That's my goal, anyway. Have a good one...Rick -- W5RH
