It's already here.  I'm sitting listening to Dan speak about D-RATS, 
while monitoring D-RATS traffic on my DV Dongle (no RF 
involved).  You need the latest DVTool beta, and the latest D-RATS 
beta, and in the Radio configuration, configure a DV Dongle 
port.  This will configure D-RATS to talk to DVTool.
