Comment on A little help with using DR mode for repeater gateway access in the Icom IC-9100 by W4KVW

I have tried these steps & I still can’t make a connection? I can’t find a D1 in the radio no matter what I press? I have no D-STAR repeaters around me so I’m using a DVMEGA HR3-25 & I have Zero issues connecting with my ID-51a+2 just the 9100? It’s my 2nd 9100 & I never was able to connect with the 1st one either? I submitted an email to the Aurthor of this topic & I’m awaiting a reply if he replies?

Very nice. I liked the suggestion of the carpet sliders. I have my desk on the little wheel “dollies” from Harbor Freight (my floor is linoleum, not carpet). If I had the room, I would choose to have 30 inches or so between the back of my table and the wall so that I could get to the back of the radios for cabling. The other addition would be a “duck board” walkway on the floor. This would allow cables to run down from the table, under the walkway, and then up the wall to electrical, antenna, and any other connections. Ease of access to the back of the table is important and usually overlooked. 73 es hope to cu on the air! – NT5A, Bob

Very, very nicely done. I would have loved to have done something similar for my desk, but No room for an 80″ door in any direction on the only wall I had to work with. I seriously admire the simple elegance you have created. Enjoy! 73 KN6ZVI

I was curious if you ever considered putting carpet sliders (heavy duty ones) under each of metal flanges? You cna get them at Home Depot or ACE Hardware. You would be amazed how one person can literally move the desk away fthe wall and back.

I had remembered seeing this back when I first built my shack in late 2016/early 2017. I had to sell everything off but I’m currently looking at rebuilding my shack from the ground up right now so this might be a cool route for me to go. Thanks for the detailed build instructions!!! Bobby W4RTA

This is great but why don’t you shoe a picture of your eq settings on the tx ment eq I like a little more lows in my out put audio and you don’t really explain what each filter controls on the eq if they need to be boosted or cut please shoe your settings and explain on each if you cut or boosted and how much. this would help a bunch with the eq setup.

Hello,

How to connect the mic with the transceiver? symmetric to asymmetric ?
And do you touch the 3 switch filter on the mic?

Thank you
