D Star satellite?
That sounds like a need idea. Would be nice to do some tests on existing satellites.
With SO-50 it will not work unless someone has figured out how to have D Star (DV) active on any D-Star radio with the required tone enabled. Won't work with the IC-9100. Tried it. Another problem is the 5KHz spacing since you pretty much have to be right on the frequency on the TX and RX. Also, on the IC-9100 it seems to be not possible to set D-Star (DV) on the RX and TX in satellite mode. Anyone else tried it? Also, SatP32 has at the moment no DV functionality for the IC-9100. I guess we have a long way to go :-)

If you don't have a radio, you can use a DV Dongle on your computer Give it a try 73 WA4HFN Damon
