[Dstar] D-Star repeater experiment

[Michael Carey]

Hi Everybody,
This coming Sunday, 29 March, I'm planning on doing some experiments 
with my homebrew standalone D-Star GMSK repeater.
I'll be setting it up at the VK5RAC repeater site North of Port Lincoln. 
One of our local D-Star users will be out of town so I am asking if 
there is anyone on this list in Adelaide who might be able to try and 
make a contact.
I will be using the 146.725MHz & 146.125MHz repeater pair, which aren't 
used in VK5 at the moment. I will be monitoring on FM as well, just in 
case prorogation is good and I cause interference to an interstate FM 
repeater using these freqencies.
You will need to program "VK5RAC C" into the Rpt1 callsign field (Rpt2 
can be left blank) to open up the GMSK Node Adapter. I will be trying 
several power levels... 5w, 10w and 25w to check interaction with the 
existing VK5RAC 2m FM repeater.
I will be onsite during this test and can be contacted on my mobile 
phone 0408 427479.
Regards,
Michael.
