Fusion | YSF, DMR, and D-Star.
Here is a brief description of the protocols and definitions of terms. Down the road who know which of these three will come out on time and become the new standard. Locally we have started using Yaesu's system because their portable, mobile, HT equipment is very popular out here in the hills.
