Given Motorola's recent acquiring an 80% interest in Yaesu, that is
doubtful.
Additionally, one of the big let downs of Dayton 2007 was the
statement by both Kenwood and Yaesu that they would not be making
anything for D-Star, at least for sale here in the US.
Who knows, this year might see a cha
Wow, the FCC actually got it right for a change!
This petition was ill conceived from the start. Ironically, while

Well, the KJ4ACN system just had our first co-channel interference complaint,
from an analog repeater trustee. It seems that there are some f
Buddy,
Not sure how D-Star is being implemented in your area, so it's hard to
comment on your specific case.
However, as to band openings and Tropo, that is going to get
complaints whether the signal is analog or digital.
One thing analog systems really need to do, which in this day and age

Tropo is a real problem here in Florida and tone encoding/decoding is not going
to solve it. The signal is still there interfering with any transmited signal.
Just lissen to 146.97 ( Largo ) when the band is open and you can hear at least
2 others under it squealing away. My machine ( back in th

This can be mitigated by "users" using tone squelch on their
individual radios, something that almost all modern radios have. The

If its still available , I'll take it.

I guess I rest my case here.
1.) If the propagation/Tropo is that bad, no reasonable co-channel
spacing is going to solve the problem.
2.) As I noted, CTCSS and/or DCS will not cure true interference. It
will however, keep the unwanted signal from activating the repeater
regardless of how strong
Robert, Buddy is NOT against this as you have mentioned...
We have ham's 100 miles away, using an analog on the same frequency,
and our D-Star repeater is walking over their analog output

Does anyone know the status of Satoshi's (7M3TJZ) UT-118 analog radio

I also heard that there was a German ham who was goin

This type of thing is the reason that Analog FM coordinations in our
area REQUIRE that the system have a working CTCSS decoder.

Evan, Buddy,
My apologies, I unintentionally referred to Buddy when in fact my
statements were intended for the other poster (Bruce), who made the
comments about forced tone squelch.
I do completely recognize that each area of the country can have its
own unique geographical (and weather) makeup,
Roger that. Thanks Robert.
Happy Hamming!

Oh this is too wonderful a thing to resist.
Coordination, coordinatio, coordination. First off.
Second: Turn the power down a notch on all the repeaters.
Third, look closer at the footprints of the repeaters before turnng on the
power switch.

Yes, but when there's enhanced propagation there's nothing you can do
about it. It makes no sense to coordinate out interfernce resulting from
that. It makes sense to accept and take actions to mitigate the effects.

Agreed. There have been cases of propagation on 2m right across the

i will follow your discusion on this subject.i have read some article about
