Re: Need some clarification between YSF Reflectors and FCS


FCS is a server based solution created originally by the DL team that brought you the dv4 line of products as a connection point for their specific product users.

Need some clarification between YSF Reflectors and FCS

Howdy, all. My setup is a Pi 2B, MMDVM board, and a Yaesu FT-70D. I think I understand the difference in architecture between Yaesu Fusion Rooms, YSF Reflectors, and FCS Reflectors. However, I'm still a bit confused on the practical aspects. Through experimentation, I can connect to America Link ...

Nextion Battery Purpose

The Nextion screen I have has a battery slot on it. I presume it's to power the RTC on the Nextion. If I don't put in a battery for the screen in a Pi/MMDVM/Nextion combo, will it make a difference? Pi-Star and the screen seems to operate fine without the battery. I'm just making sure it won't ...
