D-star workshop

D-star workshop with WN2V, W5VAA, KA4BLL, WA4VXH, and W5EMA Saturday Morning - 12/14/2013.


There was no Memphis Digital Amatuer Radio Club meeting this month so I was asked by some friends and fellow D-star users to get together and eat donuts, cookies, drink coffee, and of course make noise.  We also learned about D-star in the process.

• We covered programming the ID-880H.
• Linking and unlinking to reflectors.
• Use of "Echo"
• D-Rats
• How to Program and use the ID-880H in DR Mode. (Now Ray Novak can't tell us we are doing it wrong).

We are already thinking of another workshop to pickup where we left off.
