@KN4AQ LOL - yeah sure why not. I guess all he had been exposed to was your question 'What do you know/think of digital voice modes on amateur radio?'.
Based on that alone, I suppose some would jump straight to the conclusion that 'digital = unintelligible noise = gets in the way of my 30-minute overs on frequencies I have inhabited since 1904'. But you know what? We're all entitled to an opinion. As long as it agrees with mine! (joke!!)
Thank you for the informative vid.

@1:09 ...wow, that guy must be an expert. Otherwise he wouldn't make such unfounded, untrue and misleading statements!
I think he's confusing it with those 6kHz wide eSSB guys down on 75m ;-)

@SeanMoffett - there's no encryption built in to the radios or the protocol, and some legal issues with encryption in Amateur Radio. Could it be "hacked"? Maybe, but that's way out my area of expertise. You can find some experts on this Yahoo Group: /dstar_digital
This is really old, everyone uses computers these days

@bben95 - OK, bben, that's just lame. I don't mind taking a hit, but try to be clever. If you can't be useful, at least entertain us.

Does MrD0740 not make any sense on purpose? Or does he really not understand anything explained here?
He sounds like the grumpy old fart at 1:09...he should stick to CW on spark-gap transmitters ;-)

@VK2BEN Let's cut the guy some slack! He hadn't seen the video - I hadn't produced it yet when I interviewed him. But yeah, he didn't know what he was talking about. That was sort of the point of that segment of the video.
