[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] Fwd: Learn about talking around the world with a technician class license

[Comms]

Thanks Joe.  Everything stated is true and DMR is the fastest growing segment in amateur radio.  While radio purists may not consider DMR / Hotspots authentic radio communications because of the use of the internet, it sure makes global communications simple and clean.  Look forward to attending the MARC presentation next month.

>> DMR, a new communication mode
>> 
>> Work Australia from your easy chair on a small 440 MHz handheld? Talk to hams around the world with no noise, static, QSB or QRM. Impossible? Not at all, think Digital Mobile Radio (DMR). This technology uses DMR repeaters, or tiny personal devices called “Hotspots” to connect you with other Radio amateurs from the comfort of your easy chair. No outside antennas are required for Hotspots, in your home, in your car, or anywhere the internet is available.

>> Join us on Wednesday, Feb 15 at 7:30 PM on the Montgomery Amateur Radio Club (MARC) Zoom channel for our biweekly meeting to learn about this new and amazing communication pathway available to Technician Class Radio amateurs, as well as all other class licensees.

>> Dick Hayman, WN3R, will share with us his vast experience and understanding of this fascinating technology. You may have heard that getting on DMR is difficult and expensive! Not true, says Dick. He will explain that for less than $75 you can get on this fascinating mode very easily. He is very willing to provide individual help as well.
