U FlexRadio Systems® and NW Digital Radio Offer D-
STAR Compatible Solution
by John Hays.
FlexRadio Systems®, the premier manufacturer of amateur radio SOR transceivers, will soon release an update to their SmartSDR™ software in support of the JARL's D-STAR standard through installing the ThumbDV™ Waveform Module into SmartSDR™.
Owners of FLEX-6000™ Signature Series transceivers may add AMBE encoding/decoding to their radios by inserting the ThumbDV™ into one of the available USB ports. Use of D-STAR digital voice mode will then be enabled through SmartSDR™ software.
"The partnership of NW Digital Radio and FlexRadio Systems forged at DCC last year has yielded a unique opportunity for FlexRadio owners to add the D-STAR mode to their FLEX-6000, as a component of our growing digital voice offerings." said Steve Hicks, N5AC, VP Engineering for FlexRadio Systems®. "It's been great working with Flex to add D-STAR to their world class SOR and are excited about being a part of their ongoing development of digital voice modes." said Bryan Hoyer, K7UDR, CEO of NW Digital Radio.
HF D-STAR is a growing mode with daily nets on all bands from 80-6 meters, as well as local VHF/UHF simplex and repeater networks. For more information about HF D-STAR net operations please visit D-STAR HF Net.
A real-time HF QSO finder can be found at HF D-STAR QSO Finder.
The NW Digital Radio ThumbDV™ digital voice dongle will be available directly from FlexRadio Systems®, as well as from NW Digital Radio. John Hays (K7VE) from NW Digital Radio and Steve Hicks (N5AC) from FlexRadio, will be available for questions, at the Huntsville Hamfest.
