Using easy-to-understand explanations and illustrations, these "Nifty E-Z Guide to D-STAR Operation" manuals describe exactly how the D-STAR system operates! They give valuable guidance for setting up transceivers to be able to access D-STAR's many features and modes of operation. Special coverage is given to the extended capabilities available via Dplus equipped gateways.

These informative guides provide D-STAR users with the background information and radio programming procedures needed to route calls via remote repeaters and reflectors. They also include detailed how-to information for digital text messaging, file transfers, and DV Dongle operation.

Included is detailed information for installing, configuring, and operating the d*Chat and D-RATS digital messaging and file transfer freeware programs. These are especially useful when Internet access is not available or for supporting emergency communications.

A separate chapter is devoted to setting up and using the DV Dongle to make calls through D-STAR repeaters and reflectors using a computer. It's ideal for those without a local D-STAR repeater or for when you are traveling. A chapter is also devoted to the newly released DVAP (DV mode Access Point) dongle used for setting up a local RF hotspot so that mobile and HT D-STAR transceivers can link to stations on the D-STAR network when a repeater is not within range.
