D-STAR Introduction
• In the original D-STAR (Digital Smart Technologies for
Amateur Radio) plan, JARL envisioned a system of
repeaters grouped together into Zones.
• The D-STAR repeater enables you to call a HAM sta-
tion near you, or around the world.
• You can transmit and receive digital voice, including
low-speed data, at the same time. You can transmit
and receive position data from the built-in GPS re-
ceiver.
You can easily use the D-STAR repeaters with the DR (D-
STAR Repeater) function. With this function, you can select
the preprogrammed repeater or frequency in “FROM” (the ac-
cess repeater or simplex), and UR call sign in “TO” (destina-
tion), as shown to the right.
NOTE: If the repeater set in “FROM” (Access Repeater)
has no Gateway call sign, you cannot make a gateway
call.
