This video is slightly under two minutes and demonstrates how a contact is completed on the HF band during a radio contest. This video was shot during the 2002 Field Day event sponsored by the American Radio Relay League (ARRL). There were two clubs that were involved with this Field Day: the Central Ohio Amateur Radio Emergency Service (COARES), and the Voice of Aladdin Radio Club. The callsign used was W8FEZ.

This video will show you how to connect DV-Dongle and install the software, check your sound.
Video Rating: 5 / 5

    DStar is like echolink in that it goes locally over 2m, 70cm or 1.2 gig.  When you connect Dstar nodes via reflectors you can go over several simultaneouly.

    Nice video. Would appreciate more. Perhaps more detail on setting up and configuring D-Rats with email. Again, nice job.
