[App_rpt-users] DMR sandbox

[Doug Crompton]

I think this is a perfect example of how good the Allstar network is, open source and so easy to use. Most of these digital (SMR, Dstar, etc.) Internet connections are so much more convoluted than what we have here. Until it gets sorted out, if it ever does, I am thankful for what we have!!!

DMR-MARC is a batwing-supported network, so they have linited it to mototrbo repeaters as the infrastructure.  
Not that it is without issues, but since the IP site connect is proprietary and the network is informally supported by moto employees , i guess they can do with it what they want.
You can gen a hybrid repeater (dmr/analog with the proper entitlement key...$$), but loose the ip site connect to get the analog signals out the back of the box, or spend the $$ to get a c-bridge to link stuff together cross-protocol. 
either way, with the differences in quality of the signals, bandwidth differences, etc, i can see why MARC has limited and sandboxed it.
I bought a 440 XPR8400 a while ago and put it up on the MARC network.  Lost interest and gave it to the fellow who gave me the space in his shelter to do with what he wanted.  Neat technology, but mostly the same as asterisk networks, but it's reaching the 'endless september' atmosphere (google it for a fuller explanation)

Anyone doing anything with this DMR sandbox? If I read it right it does not provide access to the DMR-MARC. Although maybe if your part of the sandbox that's a sub network? I see they specifically mention Allstar.
