[DSTAR_DIGITAL] Re:callsign routing
A few questions I've used Callsign Routing as well as most of the other methods available on the system. All have been both successful and at other times not so much. Here are the questions as well as my thoughts to date which are subject to correction. 1. If the repeater I am using is connected to a reflector is Callsign Routing processed or does it fail because of the active link. Probably not accepted or processed? 2. If the system attempts to forward the call to a destination repeater that may be in use or linked within the system what is the result. Probably not processed at the far end? 3. In each of these cases is there any indication on my side as to whether my attempt to call my party was properly processed or failed. I may be missing something there. ?? 4. If the answer to question 1. is that I cannot route by callsign while the repeater is linked, is it proper to disconnect the link considering that I may not have the privledge to re-establish it even if I know where it was previously linked. I've not attempted to disconnect in order not to bother other users or listeners I do enjoy the whole system congratulate everyone on there work and successes to date. I really enjoy watching the progress the system has seen over the last year. Larry VE3LGH

[DSTAR_DIGITAL] GPS with D-Star
I have been using D-Star now for about 6 months and enjoy mobiling. My radio is and IC91AD and I have recently started using the GPS function. Unfortunately, there is only one radio port and when using GPS I cannot use other computer connections or software. Does anyone have any ideas on how to port the GPS data to the radio from a PC. E.g. GPS > PC > Radio. This way I could switch software instead of cables...just asking!! 73 Larry - VE3LGH
