    I am trying to get the HT programmed for use with the DStar system and then how to actually use the DStar system. I want to be able to do direct connect to DStar repeaters and as well as setup the HT to go through my home internet or another internet source when a DStar repeater is not in range.

    The RTSystems program software is a bit confusing with Tone, Tone Squelch, Tone Squelch R, DTCS, DTCS R, D Code, D CTS, D Tone, and Split Tone. Trying to figure out which one I use for a repeater that uses a code on both input and output has been unsuccessful. I will take any assistance and training links you can offer. I have an ICOM ID-52A.

    Best regards,

    Richard

    I received the same email. I too did not see HAM volunteer on the list.

    I loved it there. Property, house, family, and I lived through a few hurricanes in the years we were there too. Going to be back in the area in April for a few days. I will hit up the repeater and see who is monitoring.

    I used to live in Broad Creek, off of NC-24 there in Carteret County North Carolina.

    That is a good question. I have been involved with EmCom/EmComm for two decades. I have seen it both ways. FEMA has listed it both ways too. Depending on who you talk to at the ARRL, it has been listed both ways yet mostly as EmCom. I usually use EmCom myself. I am interested to hear from others and what they think and any history of whether it is EmCom or EmComm.

    I did get some stuff programmed into the radio. After the Marine Corps Marathon is done I will have time again to do some more and better learn the radio. Thank you for the assistance.

    Thank you for posting the pics. When I was back there in April I did hit up the repeaters and had a few respond. Most the time they were quiet. Wife and I enjoyed visiting the ole stomping grounds.

Contains abusive or derogatory content
Bias is a tendency to favor or lean towards one perspective, person, or group, often at the expense of another. Bias can be conscious or unconscious (implicit) and can influence judgment, decision-making, and behavior. Unlike prejudice, which is explicitly about preconceived notions, biases can be more subtle and can even occur without the individual being fully aware of them. Bias is broader and can be positive or negative, affecting various aspects of life like decision-making in work, preferences in social settings, etc. Bias is basically a difference of opinion and that must be respected. Prejudice, however, refers to negative, preconceived opinions or attitudes held by an individual or group towards another group or individual, often without factual basis or experience. Prejudices are usually harmful, leading to unfair treatment or discrimination. They are often based on stereotypes and can be about race, gender, religion, nationality, or any other distinguishing characteristic. Prejudice is more about feelings and attitudes. Ham Community does not tolerate prejudice. We are all different, that's fine. Remember, duty and honor are built on respect. Use this reporting category sparingly and only if you are quite certain that the member is being openly and hurtfully prejudiced.
