Ham Radio Basics: How to Build an MMDVM Hotspot Using Raspberry Pi Zero

[@TheSmokinApe]

I did a build on a Pi3b, fun project!

[@K5ATA]

I have a couple pi3bs sitting around but I have other plans for those. Thanks for watching Ape.

what about a analog hotspot is it possible? I have a friend in Florida and using hotspot would be great but he does not like digital

Great audio.

Thanks and thanks for watching!

Cómo se llaman esa especie de tubitos que le pones ha la placa en min 14.13 ?

[@K5ATA]

En ingles? Spacers. En espanol, no se... separadores de plastico? Ellas fueron incluidas con el hotspot.

I have a challenge for you. With all the Raspberry Pi sold out or insanely expensive, is there a way to create an MMDVM using a Windows or Linux laptop? I have 5 computers lying around going to waste. It just seems like everything needs a Raspberry to function. I don't get the obsession with Raspberry when we should be able to use any computer to do the same thing. :)

Hi, was this a kit you purchased or individual parts?

[@K5ATA]

It is a kit. They are all over eBay and Amazon. It is just a pi zero and a hat basically

@@K5ATA thank you, will check it out

[@Coffeebreak6329]

Very confusing, what do you type in to get google to show a pi hat that works with ham radio? Thousands of the wrong thing keeps poping up.

Mmdvm hat
