What is WIRES-X?

WIRES (Wide-coverage Internet Repeater Enhancement System) is an Internet communication system which expands the range of amateur radio communication. By relaying radio signals via the Internet, stations can be connected where radio waves cannot reach each other. WIRES uses local nodes (stations connected to the Internet via PCs) as access points which repeat communications of conventional amateur radio stations. When the local nodes are connected to each other via the Internet, amateur stations all over the world can communicate with each other just by connecting conventional stations to the local nodes.
Internet
Local node Local node StationStation
In addition to the WIRES features, WIRES-X also supports digital communications. Using WIRES-X, you can transmit and receive digitalized data such as text, image data and audio.
Using the WIRES-X in conjunction with the transceiver allows you to have analog/digital communications with stations outside the communication range. In digital communication mode, you can search stations by call signs or keywords, and exchange data such as messages and location information.

Terminology

■ Node
Radio repeater connected to the Internet via a PC, which repeats communications of conventional amateur radio stations as an access point
z Local node
Node within the radio communication range of a conventional amateur radio station
z Analog node
Node which is a transceiver or repeater using the conventional FM format and can only repeat DTMF (Dual Tone Multi Frequencies) codes and analog audio transmissions/ receptions
z Digital node
Node which is a transceiver or repeater compatible with digital communications in C4FM (Continuous 4 level FM) format. With this type of node, you can transmit/receive audio as well as text and image data. You can also repeat DTMF codes and analog audio transmissions/receptions.

■ WIRES-X user ID
YAESU provides identification names with the WIRES-X nodes. For each node, a DTMF ID (5-digit number) and user ID (alphanumeric characters consisting of up to 10 digits) are provided. If you know the ID of the node you want to connect with, you can transmit the DTMF code from the transceiver, and directly specify the node to connect to by searching by characters (only for digital nodes).
z ID list
Nodes and rooms which are currently operating WIRES are listed and published on our website. We provide information such as IDs, call signs and operating frequencies (some may not be published due to the wishes of owners).
■ Room (Round QSO Room)
WIRES system community space to which multiple nodes can connect simultaneously. As well as voice communications, you can also chat with text messages on the PC used for the local node.

■ News function
This feature allows you to save digital data such as text, image and audio data on the PC used for the local node, and access the data from the connected digital station. From the digital transceiver, you can access the local node (LOCAL NEWS) and the data storage area (news station) in the node or room you connect to, and import (upload) and export (download) data. The owners of a node or room can import/export data from/to their own station via a PC. The owner can also delete data and change information such as its name and attribution. The WIRES-X server also has its own news station (INT NEWS) where you can read information and data supplied by YAESU.

■ Preset search function
If the preferred channel for connecting to a local node is programmed (preset) in the transceiver, the channel can be scanned automatically when you start up WIRES-X. Utilize this function as follows:
• Quickly connect to the local node you usually access by presetting its frequency in advance.
• By presetting to a shared channel frequency with your friends nodes, you can quickly connect the transceiver to a local node even while you are traveling in other areas.
You can use two transceivers as nodes, one for the preset search channel (receive only channel) and the other for the voice channel (operation channel).

Connecting to a Faraway Station Using WIRES-X

Finding a local node

To communicate using WIRES-X, a WIRES-X node station (local node) must be established within radio contact range of the user transceiver.
WIRES-X nodes are stations users voluntarily registered with Yaesu. Their information such as locations and operation styles are listed on our website: https://www.yaesu.com/jp/en/wires-x/index.php
First use this list to search for a nearby local node, and nodes on the Internet used by people you want to communicate with; write down the node names and frequencies. Since the connection procedure differs between digital stations and analog stations, confirm whether the node is an analog station or a digital station.
• When the local node is a digital station:
Connect from your transceiver in digital mode. (Nodes on the Internet can connect to both digital and analog stations.)
• When the local node in an analog station:
Connect from your transceiver in analog mode. (Nodes on the Internet can connect to both analog and digital stations.)

Connecting in digital mode

• Ascertain the DSQ code or the DG-ID setting of the WIRES-X node station. Connecting to the WIRES-X node requires the transceiver DG-ID be set according to the DSQ code or the DG-ID code set on the WIRES-X node station.
• Confirm that the operating mode of WIRES-X node has been set to the C4FM digital mode.
• Before using WIRES-X, set the communication mode (modulation mode) to C4FM.

Connecting to a WIRES-X digital node

1 Set the transmit/receive DG-ID to the same ID number as the node station. For details,
refer to the FT3DR/DE Operating Manual.
2 Transmit corresponding to the transmit/receive fre-
quency.
