Keep in mind that most of the radios these days (including ICOM's D-STAR radios) have a "narrow" FM mode, with a corresponding narrow IF filter. I suspect that ICOM has that filter do double-duty and handle D-STAR as well. 73, Gary Kn4AQ ARVN: Amateur Radio//Video News Gary Pearce KN4AQ 508 Spencer Crest Ct.
