Hi, Anyone know when NI4CE is due back on air? Thanks Peter G6VBJ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
one of our analog machines has DPL capability and I'm trying to work out how to set it up. I tried it with 306 and 612 but was not able to get the machine to...
I would start with encode only - don't worry about decoding at first. Enter your code and see if the repeater keys. If not use DTCS polarity to invert the...
Ray That sounds like the 100 "group calls" Icom implemented. They work like call sign squelch but for a group. A group agrees on a number for squelch and while...
I think John Hays hit it on the head. In DV there is a thing called digital coded squelch used with dstar only. This is a code between 00 an 99. DTCS (an...
Got new ID 800 I think I m getting into repeates When I I try to bring up a repeater I get on the screen UR* and every 1 sounds Like R2D2 what am I doing...
No time given, but it is under repair for heat related issues at this time. Need to call into the area, consider using KJ4ACN. Port A is awaiting the triplexer...
A friend sent me a link to a site with ICF files for the Icom IC-2820 and IC-E92D: http://www.77hz.com/downloads.html I've only tried the IC-E92D version and...
lets first find out where you are and what you are trying to hit? How do you have the radio programmed and do you have the attenuater switched on in the...
We have some money from our local hospital to purchase a number of ID1s for field deployment in our ambulances and disaster tents. We have a number of our...
... Hi John, Contact Adrian, GM1FML@... for advice/info on using ID1s. He has been using them in for a number of years in various events. Well worth...
I suppose you could use tactical callsigns on the radios, but then the operator would need to be sure and give a legal ID as required by the rules. If you are...
I am all ove the country but tried to get into repeaters in Omah Ne and Chicago area.I put the reapeater calls in and cqcqcq in urcall ... How do you have the...
If everything sounds like R2D2, then you probably have a signal strength problem. By putting a radio on frequency and changing the mode to DV, you should...
If your not worried about GATEWAY use, then the answer would be YES! You can go as far as using TACTICAL NAMES, as long as it is a ham operating the radio.......
I have the D800H programmed and setup. There is a message indicated after TX "RPT *" On the 92AD HT it comes back with the entire repeater call sign that I...
RPT * means you did not reach the distant station. The exception being DV DOngle calls and Reflector or link calls. UR* indicates you have reached the...
I'm happy to announce that the Colorado D-STAR group has completed our site move to Mt. Thorodin, Colorado. A full D-STAR stack of repeaters consisting of VHF,...
Hello all I searched and could not find anything on this so I now will ask. Does anyone use the Dongle with a Mac computer and if so how easy is it to set up...
... That sounds like you're in DV mode, not analog. That's the two-digit "group" or "code" squelch. (The menu options change when you're in analog vs. DV on...
... As someone else mentioned, continuous "R2D2" is usually a sign you're not really within the coverage pattern of the repeater, but it could also mean that...
... You can only see the received repeater callsign in a menu on the ID-800H. Since you know what frequency you're transmitting on, you probably know the...
Ok, I have the 92AD and the D800H setup as follows: UR: CQCQCQ RPT1: KD0CGR C RPT2: KD0CGR G When I TX on the 92AD the readback data appears to be fine but on...
... Completely normal. The ID-800H doesn't display the repeater callsign, but it does STORE it, and you can view it via a menu. The IC-92AD displays the...
... You know... I want to double check that. But I'm pretty sure you can go into the RX menu on the IC-91AD and see what code is being sent in real-time. On...
