Not picking on you Ed, but they're not even close to the same thing. It's FDMA, capable of two different channel widths, and is using the AMBE+2 VOCODER, for starters. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NXDN for more details. It blows D-STAR away, feature and functionality-wise, and is 100% incompatible with D-STAR radios, and infrastructure. It can only be very *loosely* said it's "based upon D-STAR" at best. -- Nate Duehr, WY0X n...@natetech.com ------------------------------------ Please TRIM your replies or set your email program not to include the original message in reply unless needed for clarity.
