What you think about a new generation of multimode Hotspots based on CML Micro baseband ic's like CMX998/CMX981 or sdr technology?
As MMDVM was a game changer in digital communication for hams and Jonathan Naylor have his well deserved place in history book for this shift, i really belive that actual mmdvm boards, simplex or duplex reached they full potential and despite of design improvements nothing new can come.
Beside DMR and P25 , (ignoring c4fm,dstar,pocsag, analog) TETRA is a huge desired feature for hotspots to be used world wide in ham hobby, really nice to have it in PiStar or simillar. (I remember that Andrew Taylor was open to this ideea) , feature not suported by actual hw /sw and a challange for some "smart people" .
Past 2 years i heard same stories as: " someone is working", "cannot be done" ,"no hw available" "so sw available" "if you want it so bad whay you don't doit youself" etc.
I'm still wonder if from so many smart fellow hams with strong knowledge in hw/sw we can't make a team for this project and even fund the team and product , something like kickstarter project so will be a win/win for everyone ?
