  1. D-STAR Digital –Smart Technologies for Amateur Radio (40 hours of training presented in 40 minutes)

  2. D-STAR • What is it ? • Who might like it ? • How to get started ? • What do all the terms mean ? • Where can I use it ?

  3. D-Star – What is it ? D-STAR (Digital Smart Technologies for Amateur Radio) is a digital voice and data protocol specification developed as the result of research by the Japan Amateur Radio League to investigate digital technologies for amateur radio.

  4. D-Star – What is it ? • Method of moving voice packets encoded by the AMBE vocoder, locally, regionally, or globally. D-STAR Network

  5. Who might like it ? • Do you like VHF & UHF comm ? • Do you like DX ? • Do you like EchoLink ? • Do you like Packet ? • Do you like Computers ? • Do you like APRS ? • Do you like writing software ?

  6. How do I get started ? • No D-Star Radio Required • DV Dongle • D-Star Radio Required • DVAP (DV Access Point) • D-Star Hot Spot • D-Star Repeater

  7. How do I get started ? • Step 1 – Hardware • Choose your access method • Step 2 – Registration* • Register your call sign • WARNING ! • Ask for recommendations on where to register • Setp 3 – Talk

  8. Registration Requirements NOT REQUIRED REQUIRED D-STAR Network

  9. Definitions • AMBE – Advanced Multi-Band Excitation • DV – Digital Voice • Hot Spot • R2D2 • D-RATS • Gateway • Reflector

  10. Look inside the radio 2.4kbps digitized voice +FEC 4.8kbps (3.6 voice + 1.2 data) Analog Speech GMSK Signal AMBE Controller Modem D-STAR Network

  11. Look at DV Dongle Analog Speech IP Encapsulation Computer D-STAR Network NOTE: No Radio Present ! AMBE

  12. Look at DVAP D-STAR Network

  13. Look at DVAP Typical range: Several hundred feet D-STAR Network

  14. Look at HotSpot (GMSK Modem) Simplex Range: Varies with antenna height and output power D-STAR Network

  15. Look at HotSpot (GMSK Modem) Repeater Range – Same limitations as analog repeater D-STAR Network

  16. Existing Oklahoma Network 145.550 145.570

  17. The Missing Link - Reflectors • Repeaters for Repeaters • Chat-Room • http://nefl-dstar.com/blog/2011/01/13/2559/ • http://hotera.org/training%20aids/TA001.htm#What • REF030C – SE US – HF net • REF052B – Oklahoma network
