[dstar_digital] Re: Voice and Data on 92AD???
Hi Jon, In my particular application I need to have the radio connected to an amp to hit the repeater from my house. It would just make it a lot cleaner not having to pick up the radio with all the wires hanging off it and use an external mic. With the 91 you could simulate the base station experience and have the radio hooked to a computer, amp and 12v supply. Thanks, Richard / N1VXW

Hi Barry, I'm using the same setup as Mike KI5M is using, the Mirage BD-35. It puts out about 40 watts on the MID (2.5W) setting on the 92AD and works fine in the house and car. It gives the flexibility of having a HT and base/mobile rig for about $180 more than the 92 costs. I wonder if the OPC-1799 data cable could be opened up and run a couple of more pairs for the audio? I haven't seen the mic/data connector in person, is it a sealed unit or does it disassemble? Also that GPS mic you included the info for is way cool. I'm a little sceptical about laying out the bux for the Icom GPS mic but if the Infinity GPS mic would interface to the Icom I'd snap it up in a second.

[dstar_digital] Voice and Data on 92AD???
I was listening to some folks on a local repeater getting D-Rats working on their individual radios today. They were sending data and then discussing what was working and what wasn't. It occurred to me that had they been using 92ADs this wouldn't have been posable without disconnecting the data cable and plugging in the mic over and over. This seem like a poor implementation of the concept of being able to do voice and data, Has anyone come up with a more elegant solution to communicating with both voice and data on the 92? Thanks, Richard / N1VXW
