About HRCC Link

HRCC Link is a system of linked Digital Voice Modes, created to allow HRCC community members of all Digital Voice Modes to communicate together


About HRCC LINK 

HRCC Link was created to allow community members to communicate regardless of what DV (Digital Voice) mode they have a radio for. 

The core of HRCC Link is currently a URFD reflector which provides HRCC Link's YSF Reflector, D-Star reflector, and M17 Reflector. It also has a DMR master, although primarily we connect via Brandmeister for DMR access. 
To provide D-Star linking, we use two AMBE Thumbsticks on a Raspberry Pi 4 which transcode the D-Star signals.

In addition to the URFD Reflector, the link also has a WiresX room which is hosted on a windows computer and is attached to the link with an RF bridge using an Openspot1. This RF bridge links the WiresX room's node radio (An FTM-100) to the YSF Reflector via RF.

What is a URFD Reflector?
A Multi-protocol Gateway Reflector Server (URFD), like the one at the core of HRCC LINK, is a multi-protocol Digital Voice (DV) Server. The sources are published under GPL Licenses.
URFD is based on N7TAE's new-xlxd, which, in turn, is based on the first multi-protocol reflector, xlxd. URFD supports all protocols of it's predecessors, as well as both M17 protocols, voice-only and voice+data!  

A key part of this is the hybrid transcoder, tcd. 

Tom Early, N7TAE deserves credit for URFD and a number of other projects. Tom's Github
