I believe he said he was using a dongle and he may very
well have been linked to the Cle repeater which was linked
to REF001C. Another JA station was on this morning and
talked with a station in OKC. They had no problems and I am
certain there was no callsign routing or anything like that.
BUT...all that said, I am new to D-STAR and all these
permutations are very confusing. It's the ole Beta vs VHS
thing all over again.

Just out of curiosity Carl, how can you tell that the JA
station was
using a dongle ? I suspect the JA station was call sign
routing to
Cleveland (CQ Cleveland) and because Cleveland was linked
to a
reflector, all stations likewise linked heard the JA
station. Why else
would the US station need RX>CS to be heard in JA ? steve
