I have taken the PiStar page offline; because I have taken my PiStar offline.

The story is long...but the short version is I cannot in good conscious continue to use a product where I do not support
|
||
|
|
the developers. The Pi-Star devs alienated me a long time ago when they closed the doors on the idea of being open.
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
I had some hope for the W0CHP project; but they are just as self-centered egotistical our-way pricks as the Pi-Star crew.

This currently means the two primary ways of using MMDVM hotspots are developed by people who should not be involved in ham radio. I kept hearing about openness...people kept screaming about proprietary software.

|
Well...this hobby is not open. All the software projects are closed. No one wants help.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In short...I am questioning the entire idea of radio.
