[NLRS] Re: hsmm and msmm

[Chris Elmquist]

Clare,

There is interest picking up here in the Cities for Icom's D-STAR
technology.  They have hsmm-like capability on 1.2 GHz with 128Kbps
(ISDN rates) and then msmm-like speeds on 2m and 70cm at 4800bps.

I know of at least one new system coming online shortly and others
are being proposed around town.

There is a mailing list at the bottom of the page here,

http://www.twinslan.org/clubinfo.html

where it is being discussed.
