Don,  I see the argument against proprietary codec etc, but the $20 actually
buy's you the ambe chip ready to added to your circuit.

If a company came up with a secret battery that would outlast any other by a
factor of two, does that mean you should not place  it in your KX3 because
it has secrets? In any case there are people (a VK5 also) working on an open
source codec for ham use.

I lost interest in the mode here over the years, but it is very effective
for international communicational in mobile use and the repeater/reflector
internet linked network etc. Eric's call came up on Reflector 14C connection
log, linked to his local d-star repeater.

i.e: WA6HHQ (10.195.142.80) registered on K6MDD last heard on K6BJ B

 10.195.142.80 is the calls inside ip address that makes the routing system
Work .

I use to write Linux scripts for D-Star CentOS 5 gateways a few years ago,
so I really did lose interest compared to those days.
I am not sure if Elecraft are looking at selling dedicated 2m/70cm
transceivers in the future in any case.
