I haven’t tried DMR. DMR would make a good dsp project for the students. It is in the queue.

Yes, NVIS for emcomm in mountainous areas. I’m interested in using the guyouts for a spider beam mast as the dual inverted vees for 40 and 60 M. I haven’t seen that done, but someone probably has. The mast itself could also become the support for a tipi-tent with the operator at the base of the mast. Shorter cable, less swr losses.

The pics I’ve seen of the military versions all have the operator right at the mast base and the mast itself is a giant lossless coaxial cable to minimize losses. I’d love to get my hands on one to measure some specs.
