[DSTAR_DIGITAL] New Wisconsin D-Star Net Starting Sunday, 7/11 @ 9 pm on D-STAR Reflector 19B

2010-06-20 Thread Mark Thompson
The first Wisconsin D-STAR Net is starting Sunday, July 11th at 9 pm. 


The net will be held weekly on Sundays at 8 pm on Wisconsin D-STAR Reflector 
REF019B. 


The net control will be Steve, N9UDO in Baraboo, WI. 


Wisconsin hams are encouraged to connect Wisconsin D-STAR repeaters to 
Wisconsin D-STAR Reflector 
REF019B and connect DV Dongles  DVAPs to the reflector as well. 

The net will be an opportunity for Wisconsin hams to use Wisconsin's first 
state-wide D-STAR Digital Voice  Data network to meet other D-STAR users 
 
learn more about D-STAR technology. 

Look forward to hearing you on the net. 

In the meantime, you can learn more 
about D-STAR usage in Wisconsin  
D-STAR technology by 
joining the Wisconsin D-STAR group at:

On Sunday nights beginning on July 11, 2010, I will be hosting the all-new 
Wisconsin D-Star Net. It will start at 9:00pm on Reflector-19B.  Please have 
your system connected before the net. I will be looking for participation from 
stations. We will have a round-table style discussion after check-ins. All are

[DSTAR_DIGITAL] 2820/880 memory storage - callsigns

2010-06-20 Thread Jeff Pyle
Hello,

I would say I'm new to D-Star, but as I haven't purchased any D-Star
compatible equipment yet, I suppose even that would be premature!

As many hams have done I'm trying to do my homework on how the whole deal
works in general, and also in specific with the standard memories on the
880 and 2820.  But at least one item remains unclear to me on both radios.
I'm intentionally ignoring the DR mode on the 880, unless somehow it applies
directly to my question.

I understand the various callsign lists one can populate.  But what of the
interaction with standard memories?  For example, if I am operating D-Star
from the VFO with manual callsigns configured, and I save the VFO to a
standard memory channel, how (if at all) do the callsigns save to the
memory?  Ok, now what if I configure the VFO *with* callsigns from callsign
memory and save the memory channel.  Does anything change from the first
example?  Does the standard memory somehow link to the callsign memory to
say, ok, memory, use callsigns U04, R02, etc on this memory slot...

Is it as simple as each stored standard memory takes state of the active
callsigns, and writes those to memory along with the frequency data?  Or
does it somehow interact with the callsign memories at a higher level?  In
the 2820's manual it doesn't list anything D-Star specific when it talks
about what information is saved in memory.  I haven't checked the 880's.


Thanks,
Jeff KG8IU

I received the same 3 blocks as you (block 3 from
192.5.6.30#53(a.gtld-servers.net) instead of
192.52.178.30#53(k.gtld-servers.net) like you), but then I got the
following block 4:

This looks good to me. I also tried ns1 and got:

Could you try the last one with ns1 please?

2010-06-20 Thread john_ke5c
The error starting dsipsvd on a 64-bit Centos:

 [r...@ke5rcs dsipsvd]# ./dsipsvd
 ./dsipsvd: error while loading shared libraries: libpq.so.5: wrong ELF class: 
 ELFCLASS64

is resolved by installing the 32-bit library:

[r...@ke5rcs ~]# yum install postgresql84-libs.i386
...
Installed: postgresql84-libs.i386 0:8.4.4-1.el5_5.1
Complete!

G2, dstarmon, dprs, and dplus all seem to be running just fine.  Maybe 
something will show downstream, but for now it seems that 64-bit Centos will 
with the fix above.

Then I remembered my own problems experimenting in the past, and 
this looks like the same error I had gotten.  I wonder if there is 
anyway to save this, or if the sensible thing is to do a 32 bit 
Centos install and go through the steps again?  TIA.

I'd be using a 32 bit install, myself.  Having just attended a D-STAR 
workshop, it is my understanding that Icom specify the i386 (32 bit) 
CentOS 5.x distribution to run their software on.

While my experience with 34 bit software on a 64 bit system suggests 
you're right in that it'll work as long as the correct 32 bit 
libraries are in place, I am also aware that G2 is very quirky 
software, so it's safer to stick with what's specified.  However, you 
might be doing some good testing by having it running on a suitably 
configured 64 bit OS.
