I'm interested in trying some digital modes, but am not experienced at all. I've been licensed for a while, but primarily worked 2m/440 till uprgading to General in the fall. I'd like to find a good reference that explains things, what's needed, and how to do in an easy to understand way for someone that's better suited for simple instruction. Any suggestions??? |

The ARRL VHF Digital Handbook, copyright 2008, just went out of print, but is still available from book sellers--try Amazon or do a Google "shopping" search to find new copies. You may also want to contact the ARRL Technical Coordinator or Section manager for your area--they often keep track of such activities in your area. Zack Lau W1VT ARRL Senior Lab Engineer |

I am very new to amateur radio. I have been using D-Star with excellent success! I am hitting a local D-Star repeater from my front yard, that is 22 miles away, with my Icom ID-51A handheld and a rubber duck. Here's an excellent introduction to D-Star, that is free: http://www.d-star.nu/D-Star%20for%20Dummies%20%28Reference%20Edition%294.0.pdf . Hope to hear you on D-Star! |
