-  * [[dmr|Digital Mobile Radio (DMR)]]
+Internet-connected amateur radio utilizes various transport mechanisms to send and receive voice and/or data over the internet. Some systems are primarily analog while others are digital. Bridges are sometimes constructed to connect the two types of systems, e.g. an AllStar-to-DMR bridge connects AllStar node traffic to a DMR talk group. Bridges are more commonly seen used in hotspots, but they are also used in large repeater systems like the Kansas City Wide network.

+Both analog and digital systems can utilize radios or can be built so that they connect directly to the Internet. These latter devices are sometimes called radio-less or radio-free nodes.
