No, mmdvm was not designed to be as a multi host system. So it's single device only.

Thanks for the reply.

No sure we explained this.

The question is, Can Pi-Star support 2 DVRPTR BOARDS at once. Want to run two simplex DSTAR(only) nodes. One on V and the other on U.

If you do "CONFIG" "EXPERT' "DSTARREPEATER" ; there are multiple settings for DVRTPR one and two and three.
eg
dvrptr1Port=
dvrptr2Port=
dvrptr3Port=

We only want to run DSTAR, and that is all you can run when you configure PISTAR to a "Dstarrepeater" and not to "MMDVMHost"

VK7HSE, do you have or have you used a DVRPTR board? A DVRPTR V1 board is not multi mode board, as far as I know. I could be wrong.
If you are correct, why would there be setting for 3 DVRPTR boards?
