ve5uo: Brian's link works....tg4nor's doesn't 5 hours ago x
TG4NOR: thanks. I transcribed it from Icom's ad in QST...... works now. Had to put http:// before the link. Thank you, VE5UO 5 hours ago * x
W6JFC: All upcoming of events are on the "Important News" of the PAPA website. 5 hours ago x
KF5ZBL: You need to have the ThumbDV for the Flex 6k series 5 hours ago x
KF5ZBL: With flex software 1.5 5 hours ago x
KI7JD: Does anyone know which file I need to download for the pc repeater controller? I already downloaded the ircdbb gateway files. 5 hours ago x
TG4NOR: KI7JD, did the Yahoo! Group respond? 5 hours ago x
KI7JD: No. I wasn't sure what file I needed to download when I was on Yahoo groups 5 hours ago x
wa6jfk: What LID station left his hotspot in that configuration? 5 hours ago x
TG4NOR: KI7JD, you need to download DStarRepeater-20150709.exe, which is located on the Beta Folder under Files,in the pcrepeatercontroller Yahoo! Group 5 hours ago x
KI7JD: Thanks. I'll check it out. 5 hours ago x
KD8WRL: I wonder if that tends to happen more when using the same reflector (e.g., XRF012A to REF012A) as opposed to some other numbered reflector? 5 hours ago x
KI7JD: TG4NOR: The files have been downloaded. Thanks 5 hours ago x
TG4NOR: QSL 5 hours ago x
KI7JD: TG4NOR: One more step to do, CCS7 user registration. 5 hours ago x
KD8WRL: Bridging or combining reflector systems seems like a waste of channels that could be used for separate QSOs making it more like DMR. 5 hours ago x
TG4NOR: KI7JD That is correct,it is quick and very straightforward. 5 hours ago * x
KI7JD: TG4NOR: I'm almost done. Question for the box saying home repeater call. Is this your own call sign or the call sign where you registered for dstar? 5 hours ago x
KD8WRL: During the transition phase CCS and CCS7 may run parallel for a while, the servers will be connected and addresses be translated, but we will keep this time as short as possible. It will cause some confusion for users because they have to use different IDs 5 hours ago x
KB7SQI: Curious to know if Michael, VK5ZEA has checked out : github.com/ac2ie/g2_ircddb also can you send me the g2_ccs 7 software. kb7sqi at gmail :-) 5 hours ago x
KB7SQI: Hello Martin/Joe! Hope all is well w/ both of you! 5 hours ago x
KD8WRL: continued: on the different systems for the same destination. We recommend an update as quick as possible. 5 hours ago x
KD8WRL: found that on xreflector.com - CCS7-Info_ENG 5 hours ago x
TG4NOR: Hello Steve!, KI7JD, home repeater may be the gateway where you registered,or the one closest to you. Sorry I took this long, but I am browsing this on the RPi and it did not update. 5 hours ago * x
KI7JD: TG4NOR: Thanks. I get an error. It does not allow me to put in state/province. I guess I'll try again tomorrow. 5 hours ago x
n4irr: The developers documentation of CCS is public available. It may be found in the files area of the Yahoo group DVRPTR. 4 hours ago x

n4irr: Hamshop is dutch and the current batch will not be shipped to oct. 4 hours ago x
n4irr: If you go to the .com it is in english, if you go to .nl it is in dutch 4 hours ago x
VE2HOT: www.hamshop.com/dv4mini-usb-stick-for-d-star-and-dmr.html? 4 hours ago x
TG4NOR: QSL, Martin. 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: N6HKH: Sorry, had to reboot my RPI 2. It was transmitting. Anyway, I sent Michael an email. As far as the who's working on the firmware for the DV-Mega to emulate the DV4-Mini, Guus is working on it & plans on releasing it soon. 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: N6HKH: Supposedly, it's supposed to work on all DV-Mega boards. He's posted a few pics over a few days. That's all I know on the subject 4 hours ago x
n4irr: You have to reflash the firmware on the dv-mega. That is a problem as I like the g4klx software and the dv4mini SW is not as good for my purpose. So I would get DMR and fusion, but I would miss my dstar comfort zone. 4 hours ago x
n4irr: And g4klx has said that he WILL NOT SUPPORT the dv4mini 4 hours ago x
VE2HOT: www.helitron.de/shop/product_info.php?language=en&products_id=81 4 hours ago x
VE2HOT: but they only sell to dealers...not "private" people 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: N4IRR: Wow, that's a shame. Like you, I prefer D-Star, but I also talk locally quite a bit on DMR as well. 4 hours ago x
ki6zum: I think Jonathan said he wasn't planning on supporting the dv4mini in his new MMDVM. I believe the dv4mini API is quite similar to dvmega protocol so it shouldn't be too tough to update dstarrepeater. 4 hours ago x
KI7JD: KB7SQI, Steve, hello to you as well 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: KI7JD: Doing pretty well, just been super busy w/ work lately. Hate it because it takes away from my radio time. LOL. 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: KI7KD: Sadly I'm about to sign off because I have an early day tomorrow as well. Need to catch up w/ Joe & you soon on one of the reflectors. Let me know your schedule over the weekend! 4 hours ago x
TG4NOR: I will call you over at 54C,Steve. Have a great day tomorrow.....73! 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: TG4NOR: Sounds good Joe! Good to see Martin & you on here. 73 de KB7SQI! 4 hours ago x
KB7SQI: N6HKH: +Great net as always Mike! Hope all is well w/ you as well. 73! 4 hours ago x
k6fed: Check out this link: dcs011.xreflector.net the click on CCS Live on the left side to see the CCS activity 4 hours ago x
k5pac: This appears to answer some "CCS7" questions, at least it did for me: sites.google.com/site/darathursdaynite/d-star/d-star-ccs7-whats-that 4 hours ago x
ki6zum: Guus announced updated firmware for his board to make it look like a dv4mini. 4 hours ago x
k6fed: The MMDVM is purely a modem, it plugs into an FM TX and RX in the same way as a standard GMSK modem does, it includes no RF section. That's not to say that later iterations may not include more hardware, but the MMDVM is intended for repeaters 3 hours ago * x
k6fed: It will automatically switch modes depending on the input signal and/or network input. There will be a delay between switching to stop it flip-flopping too quickly.It does not make sense to have two modes at the same time.

N6HKH: Thanks everyone for your posts. They are greatly appreciated by all. 3 hours ago x
AG6WK: This is not a hear and now DSTAR product but could eventually be? nexpaq.com/ is a smart phone add on product that adds additional sensors or interface hardware (modules) to your smart phone. 2 hours ago x
AG6WK: Supposedly an rf module for dmr will be available early next year. Nothing heard about DSTAR. Also by using the add on modules with the modular smart phone case apps are not limited to a smart phones capabilities.http://nexpaq.com/ 2 hours ago x
