[Dstar] Second Aussie reflector online

[Tony Langdon, VK3JED]

Hi everyone, just letting you know that REF023, located in Adelaide 
is now online and available for D-STAR users worldwide.  The 
reflector is intended to provide a second system with low latency for 
Australian D-STAR/DPlus users.

At this stage, channel allocations for the reflector are:

REF023 A - General use.  All Gateways, Dongles and Hotspots welcome.
REF023 B - General use.  All Gateways, Dongles and Hotspots welcome.
REF023 C - Experimental use.  All Gateways, Dongles and Hotspots 
welcome.  However, this channel may contain traffic from non D-STAR 
sources.  I will be taking measures to minimise the risk of 
accidental licence breaches, by controlling what non D-STAR sources 
will be permitted to test.  Part of the purpose of these tests will 
be for emergency communications interoperability.

Like the Echolink systems that I run, I will not be blocking any 
system, unless there is a technical reason to do so.  Given the 
nature of D-STAR, I believe this is highly unlikely.

Nets are welcome, though if you wish to hold a net on any of the 
REF023 modules, please drop me an email, so I know it's going to be 
in use for your net (and don't inadvertently double book it :) ).  If 
anyone has any interesting ideas for nets, I'm all ears and happy to host.

Enjoy the new reflector.
