Welcome to - Winnipeg Digital Repeater Group - VE4WDR
D-Star, “Digital Smart Technologies for Amateur Radio" is the JARL standard for Digital Voice and Digital Data on VHF/UHF/Above.
The Winnipeg Digital Repeater Group Inc. was founded August 2, 2011, and is dedicated to providing Amateur Radio Operators access to the new world of D-Star technology. D-Star repeater VE4WDR went "On The Air" October 22, 2011, and is located high above Winnipeg with a great "Bird's Eye" view of the city.
With a D-Star capable radio you can enjoy "Crystal Clear" communications with local Hams or with Hams around the world through the D-Star Gateway. Or through the computer using a USB "DV Dongle" which provides you access to the D-Star Gateway when in an area without D-Star coverage.

The Winnipeg Digital Repeater Group Inc. has expanded after another successful fundraiser! A new Yaesu System Fusion Wires-X repeater, VE4FSN will be on UHF (443.9625+) and connected to the Wires-X server.
We also plan on having the repeater setup in AMS mode to allow those who would like to use the repeater in analog. A CTCSS tone of 127.3 Hz in/out should be used. Please note that analog will not be linked. Go Digital!
