I just tried out a cool app for Android users …
DROID-Star lets users login to the Brandmeister DMR system using your DMR ID and presents an interface that is operationally similar to Echolink. You can connect to any TG and then use the on-screen PTT to have a QSO. Works decently well for a beta version. Despite the “D-Star” branding it is a DMR app. Haven’t figure that part out.
Download it from the Google Play App Store.

Last month we tried to have a demonstration on FT8 but had difficulties with the amount of computer horsepower necessary to run both Zoom and the radio software. So this month, we are going to do a Power Point presentation instead. This is probably a good approach in that explaining how it works will help it make more sense when actually used in practice.
Also, it is almost election time again. So next month we will have our very first Zoom election! We’ll talk about this and the modified procedures we will use.
Here are the Zoom details below:
