D-Star has a few advantages over analog FM but .. Well.. Cost/Benefits is still too high, And I am anti-closed source stuff (Only I-COM makes D-Star radios) When it comes to say a 2-meter FM rig, there are dozens of them out there, You can even buy a box of parts and brew your own. But not so D-Star.
Now to the O/P who it seems had issues proramming his new toy (If you do not want it, send it to me, I'll take it, can't pay for it but Ill be your "Trash Can" )
There are some videos on You Tube that show you how to program it, they feature George Thomas (Amaturlogic.tv and ham nation) and Ray from icom.
