Digital Modes on any Android Device

droidstar for android is software which connects to D-STAR, DMR, Fusion, NXDN, P25, and M17 reflectors and gateways/repeaters over UDP. It uses open source vocoder software for all modes, and requires no AMBE hardware or silly remote AMBE servers. Dstar encoding is currently not acceptable for QSOs, so TX has been disabled.
