Hmmm..
Well I apologize for not paying more attention when I prepared my recent training. I only checked the manuals for 3 radios. I made the assumption ICOMs examples were the same for all radios since the 91, 92, and 2820 were all the same. but regardless My previous statements still hold true that UR: Your call is the called station or CQQCQ while MY: My Call is the calling station The IC-91A manual I have the .pdf of does not represent the routing as stated by Tony below as MY UR R1 R2 but as UR R1 R2 MY just like the manuals for the IC-92AD and IC-2820H. So when Nate indicated "YOUR: Your call sign" in his example still may be confusing to some because to me is sounds more like he was saying UrCALL rather than MyCALL using the ID-800H example given. Now I've laid out how the ICOM manuals appear but don't expect it to display properly on yahoogroups because it truncates lines In messages ICOM DV MODE OPERATION on the IC-91A, IC-92AD, and IC-2820H Station A calling Station B Station A Making CQ area 1 Station A calling Station C UR :A2222B UR :CQCQCQ UR :A4444C R1 :A22222 R1 :A22222 R1 :A22222 R2 :NOT USED R2 :A11111 R2 :A44444 MY :A2222A MY :A2222A MY :A2222A ICOM DV MODE OPERATION on the ID-800H Station A calling Station B Station A Making CQ area 1 Station A calling Station C MyCALL :A2222A MyCALL :A2222A MyCALL :A2222A UrCALL :A2222B UrCALL :CQCQCQ UrCALL :A4444C RPT1 C :A22222 RPT1 C :A22222 RPT1 C :A22222 RPT2 C :NOT USE RPT2 C :A11111 RPT2 C :A44444 Station A: A2222A Station B: A2222B Station C: A4444C Repeater 1: A22222 Repeater 2: A11111 Repeater 3: A33333 Repeater 4: A44444 So I respectfully submit the following instead: IC-91AD, IC92AD, IC-2820H UR: CQCQCQ RPT1: W7MOT++B (if you're on UHF) RPT2: W7MOT++G MY: Your callsign (Calling Station) ID-800H MyCall: Your callsign (Calling Station) UrCall: CQCQCQ RPT1: W7MOT++B (if you're on UHF) RPT2: W7MOT++G 73 Barry KA0BBQ ____________________________________________________________________ Nate wrote: UR: CQCQCQ RPT1: W7MOT++B (if you're on UHF) RPT2: W7MOT++G YOUR: Your callsign Tony wrote: Yep, I've always used MY UR R1 R2 As per the 91AD. :) >This is the example format I've been using for the entire time I've been >doing D-STAR examples, and the way they are on even our own local >website. This is the first anyone's been confused by it? 73 de VK3JED [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
