Re: Updated Youtube demo of the UDR56K-4?
"avignonmimi@..." <avignonmimi@...>
I still have a couple Kantronics D4-10 data radios (12 watt), but those radios had a bad oscillator design, as they drifted all over the place. Work fine in a heated room, but at a tower site they need to be temperature controlled somehow.

Hopefully this radio will have a TCXO onboard.

Pre-order is open for 2 and 1/2 months -- until this Saturday http://nwdigitalradio.com/pre-order We are planning for Q3 production for delivery -- we will update if that changes.

Only if you use moon-bounce the direction of the waves change from right to left Look at 2 screws (and one nut on one of them represents the signal) If both are normal direction you can turn the nut from one on to the other (if the faces of the 2 screws are close enough) Radiowaves behave the same (but distance between screws is higher and there is no nut hi hi) Dg9bfc sigi

There needs to be a release date (4Q 2015) or something like that, for most to start saving money. Otherwise they will probably go out and buy a WiFi router :-)

Then too, 70cm may just go away in North America as the Government takes over the band. I wish there was two or three Local Oscillators though, as the embedded Linux could be used to do a slow frequency hopper over (say) 5 MHz.

I was thinking one station could have right-hand, but then to communicate the next station would need left-hand (two antennas pointed at each other).

Wimo only sells right-hand, as they sell to the satellite market, where only the satellite needs to be left-hand.

Developers,
I'm trying my hardest to spread the word about the UDR56K-4 here in CT, but many hams have adopted the "proof is in the pudding" theory. Would it be possible to record and post an actual demo of the UDR56K-4's capabilities on Youtube? (The last discussion was Pacificon 2012 back in Oct 2012) --73 de N1OBU (Doug)(FN41AN)

Here in Connecticut, we don't have a published 70cm Band Plan. I've asked for our Spectrum Manager for his input, but he is out of town on business and will discuss with me when he returns. I suggested we adopt the Northern California Band Plan:

I'm in the Charleston, SC area.

I haven't gotten any complaints and I seriously doubt I will. Like I said, this area is not heavily trafficed in the 70cm band. 73, Brad, KA3YAN

East and West coasts could be a problem with Navy/USAF radars. The USAF created a UHF ham-free zone around the west coast Pave Paw radar.

Kantronics built their data radio for the 430 band back in the 90's, to keep it out of narrow band repeater space. Most common catalog ham antennas are cut for 440 though, so you had to buy more expensive satellite antennas, or build your own. It would be nice if someone made a circular polarized antenna with a left or a right pattern, so they could be used terrestrially.

Re: TCP/IP Over Packet
"avignonmimi@..." <avignonmimi@...>
I'm scratching my head for memory, but I seem to recall setting the MTU to 4 times the PACLEN so that only one TCP and one AX.25 overhead packet was sent, and the other 3 packets were just data. This was for JNOS to JNOS. That was a real advantage of VC (connected mode on JNOS).

Frequencies, Band Plans and other annoyances
"k7udr" <bhhoyer@...>
As we move forward to deployment, it occurs to me that the landscape for operating frequencies is anything but stable.
Here in Western Washington we have 19 - 25kHz simplex channels designated as packet, of which only 3 are contiguous, such that we could use them as a 100kHz high speed channel. We also have 3 pairs designated as packet repeaters. What are your thoughts on how to deploy the UDR in your area, particularly once we move past the current 4800 NB and 9600 baud rate limitations.

You will be able to use DD on the UDR either as an Ethernet bridge (with TCP/IP as the encapsulated protocol) or setup each UDR as a router with the DD bridge between them. The router approach is better if you need to manage traffic due to link speed.

Your comment about D-star DD for TCP/IP interests me. Being a D-star newby, how difficult will it be to setup a TCP/IP bridge between two network segments (on the same subnet)using the UDR?
