  1. Join me for Maker Net on Digital Voice Downunder (DVDU) - Thursdays at 0900 UTC, 1900 AEST, 2100 NZT.

    Software, electronics & radio projects... get tips from other makers, ask questions to the group or tell us about your latest project!

    All are #hams welcome.

    Early check ins can be done up 60min before the net start via ham.live.

  2. Due to I was asked very nicely I have spun up a #DV that bridged to #FreeDMR 530 (ZL Calling) TG

    #AllStar (ASL): 572984
    #M17 M17-434 Z
    #NXDN: 53035
    #P25: 53035
    #YSF Reflector: AU-ZL-FDMR530 or YSF00530

    You'll have to wait for the NXDN, P25, YSF to propagate to be able to connect to them

  7. I have a proposed idea for starting a #VK wide #DV net on the VK Nets Hub (50500) that I run, wondering if anyone be interested in a DV net on Sunday evening around 19:30ACST (10:00UTC), it be a mixed chat & technical net.

    International station will also be more than welcome too

    Ideas, comments etc welcome

  12. Here is the link for links to the dashboards of the multimode hubs that I maintain & operate
    dvref.dale.id.au/

    I have added more to the page and if your VK club be interested in running your DV net(s) on VK Nets (50500) hub feel to pass on this info to them and let me know.

    You can also see list of current nets run on the hub too.

    Feel free to boost 😺

    And then there... is D-STAR.

    Where you get to tell it the source, destination, and even input/output of your repeater! No screw you, we like it like this!

    No double screw you, because you have to fuck around with the callsigns you're sending to actually perform operations.

    NO REALLY I CANNOT MAKE THIS SHIT UP
    WHAT THE FUCK IS D-STAR DOING?!

    I stand by my comments in the screenshot. The rules for how D-STAR needs you to input your routing information literally sound ripped straight from the manual of a Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes mod.

  24. CW: Rant

    Anyways. YSF is "Yaesu is special" by straight-up hijacking your repeater. Unlike the rest, YSF itself is just the modulation and protocol. You need to use an overlay (WIRES-X) to actually link things around. This is basically zero-configuration: you ask your radio for a list of rooms, you give it a room, it links the repeater site to that room, you're now bob's nephew.

    This is just EchoLink. This is digital echolink.

    YSF is also special because you don't give it a destination. You just give it your callsign as a source. I have yet to see a YSF radio that even asks for a destination callsign, maybe I'm reading the manuals wrong.

  25. CW: Rant, tangent

    "reflector" is the word that D-STAR and M17 use to basically mean "master server." YSF (WIRES-X) has "rooms" which are individual groups you can link into (also called "reflectors" sometimes). The difference is that, linking into a reflector, you receive everything it gets there since it reflects it to all connected nodes. Master servers are like digital voice routers, deciding what nodes get what.

  26. CW: Rant

    Anyways. A quick breakdown for the uninitiated:

    All the commercial protocols, Project 25, DMR, and NXDN, just use talkgroups. for DMR it's 24 bits minus 2 (all-1 is "ALL CALL" and all-0 is invalid I think), for P25, I think it is too but I'm not sure, and for NXDN, it's 16 (65k). If you address your call to "group 18835" instead of "unit 3183914" then, one, everyone tuned to that starts decoding, and two, your local repeater site can hand that off (with your traffic) to a "master server" that will look in it's list of connected sites that also share that talkgroup ID, and will send them a copy of the data stream to re-broadcast.

    M17 half-asses this, by like, base-40 encoding your callsign into just a number, with a few reserved numbers for echo test or repeater weirdness. It seems that M17-xyz is the "callsign" you use for a "reflector" (basically a group)

    #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #AmateurRadioDigitalCommunications #DigitalRadio #DSTAR #DMR #YSF #M17 #NXDN

  27. CW: Rant, abundant profanity

    Tangent: People, it's not C4FM, it's YSF. C4FM is the layer-1 modulation. That's like calling ARDOP (or VARA) "PSK," or calling Ethernet "TCM 4D-PAM-5," or calling Wi-Fi "OFDMA 256-QAM." P25p1 also uses C4FM for most repeaters (and uplinks from the mobiles), is that YSF now? No. It's. Not. C4FM.

    Thank you for coming to my TEDx talk.

  28. I've had a fun day with ham radio today:

    * change some settings on my ID-5100A for a few frequencies, #ID5100
    * signed up for #NXDN
    * configured my #WPSD hotspot to use #DMR 2 NXDN cross mode
    * figured out #DroidStar on my #Android (to connect to NXDN)

    I'm still working on:
    * reducing #RFI coming in to shack, that seems to only be interfering with my space heater lol (need more ferrite chokes, maybe)
    * make a few more contacts on HF today

    I'm glad I found a day to spend doing HamRadio stuffs
