The ICQPODCAST is pleased to announce that we now have in place a bridge between Brandmeister TG:9480, YAESU Fusion #09480 and NXDN 9480. NXDN the protocol used by Icon radios is idas, while Kenwood radios use Nexedge. Whichever way you access our Digital Voice System, you will be able to communicate with everyone who is connected. Please leave a gap of around three seconds between overs to allow others to join in.
I am using C4FM and getting much better results now on wiresX with the Yaesu FT-991A. 73 de John - G0WXU.
yes but Wires-X is a closed system, does not do much for any integration and that is what we need. To bad Yaesu decided to go it alone
An HRI-200 is used for establishing either a WIRES-X node or a WIRES-X repeater. If you connect a radio to an HRI-200, you cannot use that radio to talk (it is used as the RF gateway); you must use a second Fusion-capable radio to actually use WIRES-X. To use WIRES-X with the FT-991A, you need either a WIRES-X node or WIRES-X capable repeater in RF range. The HRI-200 doesn't come into it at all.
Just set your FT-911A to the frequency and offset of the repeater, select 'digital narrow' mode, and you are ready to go. Press the 'X' button on the FT-991A and it will show you what the repeater is connected to currently, and allow you to change the room if you like. It is definitely advisable to read all the information about the repeater that you can find, or maybe even to contact the trustee. Different repeater owners have different ideas about what they want on their machines.
We have quite a connected system based in Colorado set up using Fusion Wires-X, YSF, P=25, DMR and AllStar set up and operating on many repeaters out this way. See www.SkyHubLink.com, connect and say hello sometime. 73' Jack KE0VJ
For those not aware, Wires-x is the system, C4FM is the mode. I like the Yaesu system. Plenty of people to talk to.
i don't think that bridge would hold up. the romans invented the keystone-type bridge. THAT would hold up.
