STATION: M7WDX
Operator: Larry
Station Time: GMT (UTC)
DMR ID: 2349357
D-Star ID: M7WDX L
Fusion ID: M7WDX-ND
Fusion DTMF: 76134
I monitor DMR via:
YSF96265 00-hubnet-00
YSF44195 01-CQ-UK
YSF27793 00-CQ-UK-C4FM
YSF32592 US-AMERICA-LINK
Pi-Star Live Digital Voice Dashboard M7WDX
using either a Pi - Star 4 Repeater (WiFi) Hotspot linked to PC Dashboard or
via a little Pi - Zero2 W (WiFi) Hotspot linked to iPad Dashboard. Both run cool
w Heat Sinks, and I added 2 Fans to the Pi - Star 4 duplex repeater (1 pushes in
at the side of the case with filter and 1 pushes out @ the top of the case. Thus
when I apply a heavy load the Pi - Star 4 board runs cooler.

HOTSPOTS
Raspberry Pi - Star 4 Duplex Repeater Hotspot = DMR | D-Star | YSF (Wires-X reflectors) multi modes
TIP:added Extreme Cooling Fan Kit (5v) and a second Venting Fan (3.5v) w filter - to keep PI Star 4 running much cooler.
TIP: Without extra heat reduction the board can run VERY HOT dependent on setup and load/use.
Raspberry Pi - Zero2 W, with Modem Hat, Hotspot = DMR | D-Star | YSF (Wires-X reflectors) multi mode
Do not let its small size fool you, this little hotspot provides outstanding performance. Great value and low cost.
