Super helpful video. Owned the radio for a while and didn't know of this capability. I find myself wondering if the information being beaconed, with the repeater information, needs that information in a certain place on the test message for that to work. For instance I noticed that the text portion had the frequency and other details in a particular order. Figure that, in order to QSY with the button, that sequence of the information needs to be there, but not really sure.

@edporter42082 жыл бұрын
The same way he connected to that room. You can go from one to the next. I noticed that he left the repeater in that room rather than returning it to its original room. The repeater might time out and automatically revert to its normal room.
@Liberty4Ever5 жыл бұрын
K5ORN - Thank you for this excellent concise demonstration of the range and voice quality comparison between digital and analog on the Yaesu radios. I'd read that analog has a slightly longer range, but suspected that was at the extreme edge of range where analog reception is barely intelligible. The analog in your demonstration was intelligible but would be fatiguing. The digital transmission was very clean. It's almost enough to make me want to put up a System Fusion repeater. I've read that the Group ID features didn't work through a Fusion repeater. If so, that's a shame. It seems that as long as the repeater doesn't fall back to analog through Automatic Mode Select, the repeater should be able to transmit the Group ID data in digital modes.

DCM SR this video is from 2015 , had to be a hri-200 , at least to connect to wiresx the software wasn’t out to use as a pdn for the ft2 or the 400 to be a node so the only conclusion I can come to is a hri-200 thus the 400 at shack it was used to connect to the hri

Nice video! If I use an FT2DR to connect to a local repeater that is connected to Wires x, should I change it back to the normally connected room after I'm done if I changed it to another room? I'm thinking if it's like D-STAR linking & unlinking on a Reflector back to its normal state.

If I try to create a connecting point, is it possible to do an acces with PMR frequencies ? The french rules are uneasy, and connecting HAM to Internet isn't really legal even if many users are ignoring these rules. You have to get a permission and exceptions are rare, even to disconnect your relay through Internet if something is going wrong.

When you push the WiresX button, will the radio seen out a node to connect to or do you have to have entered the repeater onto memory already? Thanks.

You have to have the repeater in your system, the radio will not seek out a node repeater in your area. repeaterbook.com is very useful in this aspect, as it can show repeaters in your area that are C4FM, DMR, etal..

Great vid. I didn't know that the 100 had direct wires X access based on their specs listed on sellers sites etc. Can you comment on what the optional wiresX node controller adds beyond what this vid shows? Is that if you wanted to make your radio into a WiresX repeater instead of using an existing repeater that offers wiresX access? Also if you switch to a different room on the repeater can other users be in other rooms at the same time? Thank you
@k5orn8157 жыл бұрын
Keith Belzowski when you put the radio into node controller mode it talks directly to the repeater via RF. That is all it will do, the radio is rendered useless as a radio to talk from. You will need another radio or ht. And yes if you move the repeater to another room the whole repeater is moved, but only in the mode you have it set for. Either analog mode(which is pointless) or digital.
