Actually the DVSI 2020 chip is about $20 in quantity one from DVSI. Of
course there are a few others chips and a little design required.

How could this be achieved if not by bit rate?

Hi John,
Not quite sure what you are thinking, but here is a brief overview of the
DStar data stream.
The input to / output from the data processing 'module' of the radio is a
9600 Baud stream - which equates to roughly 960 eight bit characters per
second.
The logic of the system digitizes th
Hi,
When a repeater is linked to a reflector an internet connection is made and
the local repeater will transmit over the air any data sent from the
reflector. The repeater will send and data stream it hears to the reflector
for retrnasmission by any other linked repeaters.

At the risk of drawing this into a flame war, it is my opinion that call
sign routing is an idea whose time will never come in a public network. It
suffers a fatal flaw in that is is entirely ignorant of remote repeater
activity and thus prohibits any attemp at etiquette.

As you will see in the manual the 880 can use either the OPC-478 or
OPC-1529R cables.
If you search the internet you can easily find the pinout for these serial
cables and make your own if cost is a real issue.
The cable is a very simple 3-wire hookup.
Either cable will work with many USB to SERIA

Maybe you don't need a repeater right away. Try simplex with your fellow

Also, no reflectors can be used. I think this will be a very skimpy contest.

Hi Anthony,
Maybe I'm a little dense, but I don't see the connection between codec2 and
cost. At around $20 for a complete, working, proven hardware solution using
an apparently quite efficient codec algorythm, it is hard to see where the
cost savings would come from.
Let's assume you could rep
The 92AD software does this. Rather than being a file-edit / upload,download
form of program it actually controls the radio interactively. Very nice to
use as a monitor while running a net too.
Not sure about the 2820, but the id-880 does not put out much (like none)
info at the data port unless

Nate,
Take a deep breath, climb down off your high horse and find something else
to do! You critical, repetitive comments add nothing to the group.
If you dislike D-Star, or wish it was something else, why don't you go and
create that something else?
It is what it is, and it will always be w
Carl,
A friend just updated his 92-AD with all known DStar repeaters. I have the
.icf file if you can use it. Alternatively I can do exports for each bank
and create .csv files. I think they can be inported into any of the ICOM
radios. (i've moved stuff between 2200, 880, 92 without much effort)
Hello James,
Well, as someone who runs a DStar net I would offer a couple of comments.
First, I assume that since the net covers many miles it must be on a
reflector. If you don't want to be connected to that reflector you might be
able to unlink the local repeater from that reflector. The abil
All this reminds me of the discussion of remote-operated HF stations and the
question of contest credits. Is it fair for two hams in Connecticut to
'compete' for DX awards if one of them is operating a remote station in the
Rocky Mountains?
Never heard a good solution to the situation and don't re
Hi Folks,
No it isn't 'true'. The codec used is the one defined by the D-STAR spec. It
is the DVSI AMBE codec and is, I am told, the same as that used in P25
systems.
There are several non-Icom projects, like the DVDongle and the several 'non
icom' repeater stacks running today. With NO Icom ge
Hi All,
Didn't notice this with the ID-880, but with the IC-2200 the software does
not provide any DV settings until it has "read" the radio.
If it reads a 2200 it modified the windows registry to indicate that radio.
The registry can be modified (one entry) to make the software think it is

You can register anywhere, does not have to be the same repeater.

Hi Don,
For what it's worth I got started on DStar with a 2200H loaner. Then I
bought the 880.
The difference in operating is significant (at least to me). The display is
much better. On the 2200 you do not see the sending station info text like
callsign. Seems like a small thing, but I really
