What is the reflector?
A reflector is a special server connected to the internet
and running a version of Dplus software. If the Dplus
software is installed on your access repeater, it pro-
vides various functions including gateway and reflector
linking capabilities (It is known as the D-STAR reflector
system). The D-STAR reflector system enables a num-
ber of D-STAR repeaters around the world to link to a
reflector. This means that when you transmit through a
D-STAR repeater linked to a reflector, your voice can
be heard on other repeaters linked to the reflector, and
you can hear other stations that are connected to the
reflector when they transmit.
