I was just pointing out that the current VHF/UHF digital modes IMHO stink and hams are being sold a bill of goods by the retailers. On the other hand it is always good to know the technical side so I will sit back and listen.<br id="FontBreak"></font><br><font style="" face="Tahoma,sans-serif">As for Allstar there are a couple of key things on audio quality. One is the fact that usbradio can and often does have serious problems with distorted audio. As long as you are using simpleusb which most if not all BBB and RPi2 user are the considerations are levels and equalization (needing pre/deemphasis). Often a new user needs help with this and we need to offer that.</font><font style="" face="Tahoma,sans-serif"> You can get good clean Allstar audio but there is nothing you can do with poor digital audio</font>.<br><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: k8it@cac.net<br>To: arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>Date: Mon, 4 May 2015 19:04:33 -0400<br>Subject: Re: [arm-allstar] has anybody bridged dstar to allstar and how?<br><br>

<div>Sorry Doug. I thought I was asking a technical question not a political
question. I have heard dstar repeaters with good and bad audio as well. the
allstar codec seems to be one of the best however there are some nodes with
there levels way off and sound awful. anyway I was asking from a tech side not a
political side. I did not realize this was a sensitive topic</div>

<div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000" face="Tahoma,sans-serif">Anything can be bridged
to anything else in numerous ways but I was wondering why you would want to mess
up our wonderful Allstar audio with crappy Dstar audio? Personally I don't want
to hear any of the current amateur digital audio on Allstar. A circuit is only
as good as its worst audio! That being said you can do anything you want but if
I hear that kind of audio on any circuit I maintain I would disconnect it unless
it is an emergency.<br id="ecxFontBreak"></font><br><b><font style="FONT-SIZE:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="FONT-SIZE:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="FONT-SIZE:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="FONT-SIZE:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="FONT-SIZE:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="FONT-SIZE:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br>
