I know this is probably old hat to most, but I think I have the world's most connectable allstar server :)….

I've now got a B and C module of D-star (via freestar*) that I can connect in, my own experimental XRF reflector, I can cross link analog to digital, etc.  What's most amazing is HOW GOOD IT SOUNDS, when the D-Star audio comes into the allstar server.

I just decided that I didn't want to do the rptdir thing, so I'm using chan_dstar and the dextra_client…. And it really sounds good.  I'm scratching my head as to why this was so frowned on in the beginning of time (not from the allstar guys, but the d-star guys).

Anyway, I think if I had everything connected up, it's like 2 full duplex repeaters, a full duplex IRLP connection, and a d-star gateway, but 2 simplex bases, one for d-star one for allstar…. Good think I had a whole bunch of 25W dummy loads :)…

since I got everything working, I just figured I'd share… while it wasn't brain dead easy, it wasn't too difficult either
