To connect to ZELLO's HELLAS-FRN channel so that through it you can access the communications room of Hellas-FRN which is for radio amateurs, you must first create a Zello account and indeed along with the username to be and the your amateur radio badge, in a way that is visible during your connection. The participants in this channel are those who have registered at Hellas-FRN.net and are radio amateurs with a station license wireless in force. This requirement comes from the capacity that each active member has in their Zello channel to activate radios through Hellas-FRN. The link is made with the Ham1 room which contains only VHF radios, as shown in the photo below. This is achieved on the one hand by Zello which works as a gateway (and not with VOX as as usual, which presents serious communication delay problems), and besides the possibility of the FRN program to work in the crosslink position for cooperation two programs with controlled PTT on broadcast and SQL on reception over independent COMs at TTL level. The adjacent photo shows an example of connecting to Zello and specifically to the channel of HELLAS-FRN. The yellow boxes show fellow radio amateurs with a visible badge, where after checking that they have registered they have been designated as "trusted" (Trusted or not is the translation of the terminology used by Zello). The names shown in the red box are waiting to be designated as Trusted by the administrator. This state of Zello comes from the setting that access to the channel is by approval. People there can only listen to the conversations of colleagues at the top of the app, but they can talk to the program administrator or moderators for access instructions or something else. As mentioned at the beginning of the page, those who are in the "untrusted" list they are considered as pending access approval. It is necessary to have their badge visible and to have registered at Hellas-FRN.net. Radio amateur callsign and CBr callsign next to it is not a problem, neither for approval nor for use, as it is considered that the colleague in this case is acting as a radio amateur and not as a CBr. Other forms of nouns or diminutives or attributives - descent they cannot be approved for communications security reasons by pure radio amateurs, since random names do not identify radio amateur status. Also subtly only club CB are not approved. The names in the red box in the adjacent photo are taken as a real example of the above mentioned. It is impossible their classification as trustworthy as long as they state plain names or surnames or toponyms, information from which does not indicate whether they are radio amateurs. Note: They may be , but it is not listed and thus the radio amateur status is not recognized. There are some who really aren't and are connected there on Zello for simple listening.

© Hellas-FRN.net The existing diagram is under general revision. Hellas-FRN.net now has a separate DMR server for digital networks, globally connected, which is currently under development to include all known digital networks with the corresponding connections. A detailed illustration of analog and digital connection bridges will be posted on this page, replacing the current one. At the moment you can be informed about the progress of the development of the digital network at http://2022.adn.systems , under the name ADN-HELLAS-FRN, a purely (nature and location) Greek server.

Press on the image to see the dashboard C4FM C4FM stands for Continuous Four Level Frequency Modulation and is a FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access) modulation method. C4FM is a digital modulation technology. What your radio uses over the air to talk digitally to other digital radios and repeaters. Fusion This is the name that Yaesu has given their implementation of C4FM. The full name is really System Fusion. It is not a new technology but a marketing term created by Yaesu for referring to their C4FM. You can learn about System Fusion on the Yaesu website here: http://systemfusion.yaesu.com/what-is-system-fusion/ Wires-X Wires-X is a technology that runs on top of System Fusion. It provides a network of repeaters. Wires-X has a concept called rooms where multiple repeaters and nodes can connect and talk to each other. A room is similar to a reflector in D-Star, a Talk Group in DMR and a conference in Echolink. Wires-X provides a directory of connected rooms and manages the connections from Nodes/Repeaters to each room. In addition, Wires-X provides a way from the radio to change to a different room, search rooms and more. Some radios have more features than others because of touch screens, etc. There is also the ability to send messages and pictures, put them in a common message store on each node or room for others to read (think of news). Without Wires-X, System Fusion is just a communication protocol. YSF YSF short for Yaesu System Fusion really is not a Yaesu technology when looking at the YSF servers. It is another method of creating a room where other System Fusion users can connect together. Unlike Wires-X, there is no central management of the rooms that are up and available. There are directories of YSF servers (for example: https://register.ysfreflector.de/ and many of the digital softwares you run on your computer also maintain lists for easy selection. The important thing to note is that System Fusion repeaters cannot directly access these servers. To get from Wires-X on Yaesu System Fusion to a YSF server, you need a bridge (more on that in a bit). You can find YSF rooms connected on some repeaters that are running the MMDVM software as their repeater controller. Some of you may also know it as Pi-Star which is a pretty interface over the MMDVM software. Bridge A bridge is a way of connecting 2 different protocols or technology together. It is similar in concept to a cross band repeater that for example takes in a signal on 2 Meters and transmits it back out on 70cm. Since YSF cannot directly talk to Wires-X, there is a bridge that can talk to both YSF and Wires-X. When it hears something on Wires-X it sends it to YSF and the opposite happens when it hears something on YSF. There are multiple ways you can bridge between the networks. One method is simply setting up a Wires-X node with a radio and setting up a YSF/FCS node with a radio on the same frequency. Very similar to what cross band repeat does. There are some that may be able to make the translation using software. For example, a our XLX reflector translates from Brandmeister DMR TG 20222 to XLX165 Module B all in software digitally. It never decodes the audio. That is possible because both use the AMBE2 format. For example, if you wanted to take the same DMR and put it on D-Star you would need to drop it to audio first and back because D-Star uses the older AMBE protocol. Since Fusion, YSF and FCS are all using AMBE2, it can be done easily in software. It is possible that there is a bridge between Wires-X and YSF and then one between YSF and FCS with no bridge between FCS and Wires-X. This would mean that when someone keys up on A Wires-X repeater, it would connect to YSF via a Bridge and then YSF would connect with FCS through a bridge. It can get very complicated and it is important to remember that every bridge adds delay. Too much delay and people are talking over each other.

Here you enable echolink in version -L (link) to run together with Allstalink 3 every time the ASL program is run. Be careful, echolink (-L) is started together with Allstarlink. No communication information is exchanged between them. It is understood that you already have a valid account in echolink in version -L so that when Allstarlink starts it can also open. In order to start communication between them, the actions mentioned in the video in the next options section are required. dd paragraph text. Click "Edit Text" to update the font, size and more.

Click on the image to proceed AllStarLink is a network of Amateur Radio repeaters, remote base stations and hot spots accessible to each other via Voice over Internet Protocol. AllStarLink runs on a dedicated computer (including the Rasperry Pi) that you host at your home, radio site or computer center. It is based on the open source Asterisk PBX running our app_rpt application. App_rpt makes Asterisk a powerful system capable of controlling one or more radios. It provides linking of these radio "nodes" to other systems of similar construction anywhere in the world via VoIP. AllStarLink's primary use is as a dedicated computer node wired to your repeater or radio. Connections from Echolink, other VoIP clients and telephone calls are supported.

ABOUT THIS SITE This website is the result of a continuous effort to help Greek radio amateurs who are interested in the subject and the specific means of communication, whether it concerns the analog way of transmission, or its evolution in a digital way, or a combination of both of the above ways at the same time. It is constantly enriched with new explanatory and technical elements for the convenience of those involved in the use of the Free Radio Network. It has no relation whatsoever with other websites – blogspots, (or even occasional servers) which, as the case may be, refer to the subject of the Free Radio Network in Greece and involve PMRs, LPDs and (after notification with the clear limitations of the law) in the use of CBs . The posting of the website was done in such a way that we consider that works sufficiently explanatory to serve the requirements of the average of those concerned, in terms of language, style and concepts. It is made clear that it is aimed at colleagues with basic knowledge and relevant experience in using a computer connected to a transceiver, as well as the necessary concepts and understandings concerning digital communication networks. Therefore, for someone with zero knowledge about the subject, its training, involvement, regulation and operation, either of a client or of a gateway, despite his desire, it is required to make an effort to learn himself at the beginning as absolutely necessary condition and then attempt the application. The notion that someone, in TWO WORDS, will explain everything to him or someone else will set everything up for him, is beyond reality, since avoiding knowledge of the subject and direct operation (especially of a gateway) requires his personal involvement with the necessary elementary knowledge. What is written on this site is the necessary information about the subject and is not a "philosophical" rambling post per subject. If it is difficult for someone to read them, he should also recognize that nothing happens automatically by itself or that someone else is not going to do the work that he has to do. The current state of analog Internet communication has ECHOLINK and now the FRN. There are similarities but also serious and communication security-critical differences which are easily discernible elsewhere on this site. Determining the actual differences between the two programs above is left to the technical concern of those radio amateurs who deal with Internet communication programs. According to Ministerial Decision 38200/1136, Official Gazette 1969/2 Sep 2011 and in particular article 15, paragraph 6, as well as Decision 10800/310, Official Gazette B648 2013, the opportunity is given to implement technological innovations to support radio amateur activity by combining digital technology and the Internet. It broadens the horizon of employment for radio amateurs by applying these technologies, beyond those established to date, for experimentation, communication or even in case of need to offer to society as a whole. (Article 15, par. 6: " Communication between amateur radio stations is limited to the transmission and reception of communications of technical content related to tests and measurements, as well as to observations of a personal nature. Voice communication is carried out in clear language. The use of crypto-phony is prohibited , code words or any unknown code. However, in support of amateur radio activity, it is permitted to use known and internationally recognized technologies−encodings−configurations−protocols (new digital technologies and voice and/or data transmission applications such as indicatively D−STAR, DMR etc.) as well as the use of internationally recognized means of communication related to the Internet or other interconnected digital technologies." ) Attention: The above only concerns radio amateur activity, excluding the application to other types of non-radio amateur transceivers. (e.g., PMRs, LPDs, CBs). With your participation in the FRN program, either as a simple client, or as a gateway, but also with the GRN for Android devices, you help maintain, on the one hand, the existence of the Greek server on the international list of active FRN networks for the obvious reasons, on the one hand, to the general support of the whole effort, so that it continues to be maintained. 73!
