The idea behind the creation of this group is to promote discussion of the D Star digital voice and data mode and sharing of ideas and useful information with other hams who have or are planing to buy radios equiped to use this mode in Maryland and surrounding areas.
Since purchasing my Icom IC-2820H VHF/UHF mobile rig with the digital board, I have had a few discussions with other hams from around the area and decided this could be great way to share information amongst ourselves or even coordinate a few simplex QSOs between others in the area who have the equipment and would like to try it out even though there are no current D-Star repeaters in the area.
So, WELCOME all who share an interest in the use of D-Star in Maryland and surrounding areas... 73's de KB3CJT
