5.4 Configuration for Reflector Node

5.4.1 What is a Reflector?
A reflector is a server that is connected to the Internet. Audio packets that are transmitted
via the Internet are duplicated and relayed at the same time to other connected devices in a
manner that resembles a reflector. By connecting to a reflector via devices such as a
D-STAR repeater that has dplus (software) installed in the gateway system, or a DV (Digital
Voice) node device for connecting a reflector (Access Point), it is possible to communicate
with stations at a remote location.
(We do not provide support for node devices used for reflector connection.)
5.4.2 Reflector Menu on the TH-D74A/E
By adding a simplex node device's frequency information in the repeater list, the Reflector
Menu Select can be used as well as a D-STAR repeater.
When adding a simplex frequency of the node device for reflector connection to the repeater
list, input the string "DIRECT" both for "Callsign" and "Gateway" entry fields in the
MCP-D74 Memory Control Program or of the TH-D74A/E.
