Jon, WB2RYV will be demonstrating D Star.
What is D-Star?

D-Star offers digital voice and slow and high-speed data communications. Slow-speed digital voice and data are transported at 4800 bps, of which 3600 bps is used for voice transmission and the remaining 1200 bps is used for syncronization and general use. Of that 1200 bps, around 900 bps is available for the transmission of data.

High-Speed digital data communication is transported at 128kpbs and is capable of supporting Ethernet packets and also is fast enough to use for Internet applications such as displaying web pages.

D-Star is capable of connecting repeater sites using the Internet and forms a world-wide radio network. This state-of-the-art system has a tremendouse amount of functionality not available with less sophisticated linking system like IRLP and Echolink.
