With regards to the question how would I know that the repeater wasn't handling voice traffic? Couldn't an implementation also display in DRATS an indicator that the repeater was in use. I think connecting the Ratflector directly to the gateway would be a great add.

Hi Leon,

One way is to use a radio and a cable from your radio to your compter either serial or USB. This cable would depend on what model radio that you have.  You can order one pre-made or make it yourself.  You would set up your radio the same as the setup you use for voice contacts.  The UR Call would be whatever repeater you are connecting to or the id of the reflector you wish to connect to, the rpt1 would be what port you are using locally and rpt2 is the gateway that you are using.  REF015 C is a good reflector to use for chatting with other D-Rats users.  To set this up click preferences/radio add another connection.  Name - Radio, Type - Serial, Serial Port - what ever com port you are using on your pc, Baud Rate - whatever baud rate your radio supports.  On the radio turn off the GPS and make the PTT Auto.

You can also use the Ratflector.  In preferences/radio add another connection.  Name - Ratflector, Type - Network, Host Address - ref.d-rats.com, then click add then save.  There's usually a bunch of Hams on there you can chat with.

At night between 8PM and 10PM est there are a bunch of people on D-Rats on the K3PDR repeater port B.  Feel free to connect and join us.

No, not at the moment because Robin hasn't added such access to dplus.
If he did, you could do what you're asking.  Email him and ask for it :)

If you do not use a dongle and it were possible to connect to a gateway without it, how would you avoid interfering with voice traffic unless the gateway was designated data only by agreement?

Why, i am asking this...I see that through the DvDongle and DvTool, Drats
can be set to send text messages to whatever reflector DvTool is connected
to........but just downloading DvTool and trying to do so with Drats doesnt
seem possible ??
