Hi Dan, If I was to send you a Satoshi Node Adapter would you be able to make it work with D-RATS? This might be the easiest/cheapest way to float a D-RATS node. The boards are about US$50 to build and a GM300 can be had for US$100. No more dedicated/expensive Icom radio's tied up on the bench! Let me know what you think.
