Episode 20 - Robin Cutshaw AA4RC from HamRadioNow. 

After reverse-engineering the D-STAR protocol, Robin Cutshaw AA4RC wrote the DPLUS software that allows D-STAR repeaters to be linked together and combined on apos;reflectors.apos; Then he (and his partner Moe Wheatley AE4JY) invented the DVDongle and DVAP, devices that allow hams to use the D-STAR system where there are no D-STAR repeaters.

In this interview, we get to know Robin a little better and go through the history of the development of his D-STAR products.
