The dream: (Gary's dream, anyway) – a VHF/UHF digital voice radio that handles all the DV modes.
The bridge: Servers and reflectors that transcode from one mode to the other, so D-STAR users can talk to Fusion users can talk to DMR users....
Wireless Holding's Uli Altvater AGØX is building both the radio (the DV4mobile) and the bridge.
Uli also appeared in HamRadioNow Episode 263, Learn More about DV4
Sterling Coffey N0SSC and Marty Sullaway KC1CWF from the Phasing Line Podcast join HamRadioNow's David Goldenberg W0DHG and Gary Pearce KN4AQ for an Epic Episode Mashup.
Do they talk about anything significant? Solve all of Ham Radio's problems? Advance the Radio Art? Or just goof around for nearly two hours?
What do you think?

Mark Griffith KDØQYN's goal for this project was to design and build a super-simple, ultra-portable system for using Amateur Radio to send and receive email in disaster situations when all else fails... without carrying in a wheelbarrow full of equipment and wires and taking a "two days" to set it all up.
The result: PiGate, a tiny Raspberry Pi-based Winlink gateway.
