    I upgraded to the SharkRF OpenSpot 4 Pro ham radio hotspot recently and I filmed this video the day it came in the mail, all the way from Estonia to Texas!
    In this video I give a little bit of an overview, compare it to my MMDVM Pi-Star hotspot and walk you through how to setup the Shark RF OpenSpot 4 Pro in 5 minutes or less for DMR mode and give some of my initial thoughts on this digital hotspot!

    Thanks for the video. The PTT app functionality is a plus for me and the fact that you can do DStar crossover.

    Is the openSPOT4 Pro just for listening or for connecting a HT radio?

    • @KI5IREhamradio
      @KI5IREhamradio  6 місяців тому

      The OpenSpot 4 Pro is for connecting an HT radio. In order to connect to a server, you'll need a ham radio license and a radio ID from radioID.net.

    Thanks for trying and I know you're new to YT vids, but man oh man, please get to the point. After almost 4 minutes of hearing your history and what you are going to tell us, I had to click off in frustration. No meaning to be a d*ck here but people come to YT for quick info. Best of luck to you.

      Thanks for the honest feedback. I’m definitely new at making UA-cam videos, so learning as I go. I’ll keep this in mind.
      Hope to see you tune back in later down the road.

      I clicked off as soon as I heard the gross misunderstanding and misinformation spewed about the fundamentals of digital voice and hotspots. That was brutal. 😮

      @@KC1PRF the app is was showing is openspot4.local. You must be connected to the same network that your OpenSpot 4 is on in order to access it.
