HAM RADIO · D-STAR

Connect your HAM radio to a D-Star reflector

A practical quick-start for radio amateurs: choose a busy module, program the right network and module, then verify the link on its dashboard.

Native D-Star radio (Icom, Kenwood, Flex)

Register and enable your callsign, enter the access repeater and select the reflector/module from the DR or Your Call menu. Link and unlink commands depend on the model.

MMDVM · WPSD · Pi-Star hotspot

Configure the hotspot callsign, enable D-Star on the modem and select REF, XLX or DCS with its module. Then use the radio connected to the hotspot to link.

DMR, YSF/C4FM and cross-mode

Cross-mode works only when the hotspot and gateway support it and are configured correctly. For predictable results, use a D-Star radio on a D-Star node.
