Welcome to DVSwitch

DVSwitch is a set of tools and programs related to provisioning and operating Amateur Radio digital voice networks.

Purpose

The purpose of DVSwitch is as follows:

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

Our stated position is:

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: New Install of DVSwich Steve N4IRS #8625 So, you have DMR, C4FM and NXDN all bridged and you want to add D-Star to the bridge? toggle quoted messageShow quoted text On 2/4/2021 1:57 PM, N9UMJ wrote: I'm wanting to DMR , C4FM and NXDN to transcode to Ambe at the XLX server if thats possibl;e, The XLX and DVSwitch will be at the same VPS , but the vocoder will be at my physical location with the vocoder, If possible I want to map the two, If thats possible with DVSwitch.

Re: New Install of DVSwich N9UMJ #8617 Very nice...Smooth build ! I have my XLX reflector on this VPS as well but my transcoder is at another IP address..How would this map through to the transcoder to DVswitch? Didnt find the dashboard? May have overlooked it? after the build I'll direct my BM TG to the XLX , The ambe is all that see's the trancoder.. Just not sure how DVSwitch should map for transcoder ...If it does at all?? .127.0001 will map to the XLX to DVSwitch. I've not done this yet. The XLX has only been used for Dstar up to now.

Re: New Install of DVSwich N9UMJ #8616 Steve HTML sounds interesting and may be something we can use? We have discussed adding an analog bridge, We currently operate 9 linked analog repeaters with coverage of 2/3 of the estate of Indiana. On demand options to digital have been an interest of many in our group. I'll watch for the release. 73 Rick n9umj toggle quoted messageShow quoted text On Thu, Feb 4, 2021 at 11:00 AM Steve N4IRS <szingman@...> wrote: Glad to hear it.

Re: Dvswitch android app dropping out. john.sutton45@... #8607 It is now working perfectly after I swapped the sd card for one with the Dvlink application to test the Raspberry Pi. On reinsertion of Dvsitch sd card it now working perfectly. I think it is possible disturbance of the Raspberry Pi caused slight movement of sd card and caused this problem. Thanks for your response.
