As I understand it (Could be wrong) you have to enable DStar inYes, D-STAR requires a hardware vocoder, because there are no decent software vocoders for that audio format. I tried D-STAR in DroidStar once, where there was no hardware option, and the audio was very poor, practically unreadable. You _can_ enable the software vocoder in Analog_Bridge, but not recommended. As one set of instructions put it - "You won't like the result". Normally, D-STAR would be setup with an AMBE3000 device, either on the DVSwitch host or via an AMBEServer. On my multimode gateway, I had an original DV Dongle lying around doing nothing, so I used ircDDBGateway and DummyRepeater to do the transcoding, since DummyRepeater supports the DV Dongle hardware. -- 73 de Tony VK3JED/VK3IRL http://vkradio.com
