There are two ways to use Wires-X One way is to use it to link repeaters together. The other is to use it to browse other Wires-X nodes and rooms around the world. Pay attention when you see this icon

We currently use the linking feature to link our repeaters across the metro This however precludes anyone from using Wires-X to navigate to other nodes and rooms around the world

Yaesu's introduction of the Portable Digital Node solves that problem. Now you can easily create your own portable node and visit any Yaesu node or room without affecting our linked repeaters.
