<DIV>We use 145.67 and 145.65 but any voice frequency can be used I think.
Check your local band plan also for dstar repeater frequencies. I don’t know of
a D-STAR frequency as such but you may want to check with your local band plan
co-ordination persons and I would suggest trying to stay away from 146.43
simplex and above because it sounds like ‘white noise’ and
other may monitor those frequencies, especially if 146.52, the national calling
frequency for example, is used in your area.</DIV>

following is what you are asking but you can send files using dstar and at the
same time as you are talking if you wish. We have done that several
times. What I don’t know is if the file takes longer than when one is
talking what happens. I assume the repeater stays up unless timed
out but the person on the other end wound not hear any voice but
should have some indication that the repeater was still busy. If you
were using dstar simplex then timing out would of course not be a
problem.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>

some. We have a dstar repeater on 25B usually but we can put it on any
node so if you want to try some file transfers using rf dstar and coupled
via the internet I would be glad to run some experiments on reflector 15C
which is a data reflector. I can change our dstar repeater to reflector 15C
anytime so if anyone wants to work via reflector 15C rf I would be glad to
give it a try. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
