<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal>Hello,</div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto" class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal>I am looking to set up my first Allstar node and I’m going to use either a Baofeng UV-5R or UV-82 HT for the radio. I plan to interface this to the node with a DMK Engineering URI (http://dmkeng.com/URI_Order_Page.htm) I have yet to order. Does anyone here have experience with interfacing Baofeng HTs to the DMK URI and have any tips on how to secure the connection and anything else I should know? I am also interested in Echolink so a product that would be compatible with Echolink would be my best choice.</div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal> </div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal>Any other suggestions for radio interfaces would be welcome as well. I have looked into Advanced Repeater Systems’ products as well (<A href="http://arsrepeaters.com/USB_AllStar_Adapters.php" rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://arsrepeaters.com/USB_AllStar_Adapters.php</A>) and they look excellent, however, I would prefer the versatility of something like the URI for when I upgrade the radio on the node. It looks like the ARS product only interfaces to a certain radio but the URI will interface to anything (give you know the pinouts on your radio, etc).</div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal> </div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal>So all in all, I am getting started and have yet to choose an interface. I have the Baofeng radio chosen as my starter radio, everything else is open to suggestions!</div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal> </div>
<div class=yiv9777366248MsoNormal>Thanks</div>
