Greetings all and happy Easter
Short note for all Dstar users that we have a node
running in Townsville and has been on test for the
past 4 months and working well.
The setup is using a Simoco SR9000 radio in C4FM
mode coupled to a GMSK modem and using a Raspberry
Pi for all encode and decode to the Gateway.
The unit currently sits on reflector XRF005 24/7
but can be shifted by users to any available reflector
of each users choosing.
The range at present varies between 9 and 15 klms
depending on the direction you are heading and the
Townsville Amateur Radio Club plan to have a full blown
D Star repeater in place on their mountain top site in
the next few months.This is currently under construction
and awaiting license approveal from the W.I.A
So watch this space for more details or you can contact
Tubby VK4TUB on wormhole15@hotmail.com
regards Kerry
