Welcome to DVSwitch
Purpose
1) Allows “local” networking during an outage of the regional national/international network server.
2) Allows a local network operator to “blend” upstream feeds from different Networks (capital N on purpose). These Networks can’t get their act together and learn how to play nice with each other (everyone guilty as far as we are concerned). They may not like people doing this, but the solution is to grow up and work with each other, and not keep trying to force people to take sides.
3) Allows local segregation of localized traffic with more flexibility.
4) Allows experimentation with linking and how it’s done (part 97 specifies experimentation and advancement of the radio art are a core part of amateur radio).
Mission Statement/Position
WHEREAS the Networks continue to be largely islands and are not working together to create a unified network of Networks.
WHEREAS no firm reason has been given by any of the Networks why a *competent* local network operator cannot make this work effectively.
(US ONLY)
WHEREAS 47 CFR 97 (Amateur Radio Service) specifies that a core component of amateur radio is experimentation and advancement of the radio art [97.1(b)].
BE IT RESOLVED the core group of US amateur radio operators and experimenters organized around the DVSwitch project, and in the spirit of USA 47 CFR 97 and its intentions, support the *responsible* and *thoughtful* use of digital voice networking tools to create localized networks that will interconnect to the national/international Networks, and will support users of its tools in order to do this in the most effective and sustainable way possible.

Re: Screen Layout
Steve, this is email issue. I looked on the user setup and shows nothing. A second look, and it's not all messages I send. But from group allstarlink. Confuses me? Shows my user id as "Mike KB8JNM **" but only that category so
far as I can see. But don't send much on others.

I thought I appended myself ? Why is my user id now appended with two stars ? Now Special ?

Re: Screen Layout
Chris, sorry to have misguided you a bit. I should have look at
my stuff better before my answer.

Re: Screen Layout

Re: Screen Layout
Well, I thought I edited mine over a year ago. As I think about it, it was analog reflector I edited.

Re: Screen Layout
If you know php, edit /var/www/html/index.php That's where it all happens. If you don't know it, I suggest you make a back-up before you
start. Perhaps even 2.

Re: Screen Layout
1: Check your default font and sizes. Should not cover. (hard to see
the issue on your screenshot)

2: Look at the macro section of /opt/Analog_Reflector/arRoot/modes/DMR_node_list.json 3: If you are talking about the startup picture in the screenshot, you can't change that. That is one of our founders N4IRR

Re: Allstar issue using DVSwitch

This is how I've been connecting with DTMF for years. Then I do a *30 when I know I actually want to talk. That way, I don't blast telemetry and make a bunch of unnecessary noise just by showing up. I think this is much less of an issue if you're using something like DVSwitch, but it sure does prevent accidental keying.

Re: Allstar issue using DVSwitch
Safety is the reason. *2 puts you in receive only, no accidental
transmit.
