D-STAR Intoroduction ■
• In the original D-STAR (Digital Smart Technologies for
Amateur Radio) plan, JARL envisioned a system of
repeaters grouped together into Zones.
• The D-STAR repeater enables you to call a HAM sta-
tion in another area through the internet.
• The transceiver can be operated in the digital voice
mode, including low-speed data operation, for both
transmit and receive. It has a built-in GPS receiver to
transmit and receive position data.
About the DR (D-STAR Repeater) mode ■
The DR (D-STAR Repeater) mode is one mode you can
use for D-STAR repeater operation. In this mode, you
can select the preprogrammed repeater or frequency in
“FROM” (the access repeater or simplex), and UR call
sign in “TO” (destination), as shown to the right.
NOTE: If the repeater, set to “FROM” (Access Re-
peater) has no Gateway call sign, you cannot make
a gateway call.
