Re: Needed: SMS how-to guide...

Nothing whatsoever is going through my hotspot in terms of messaging. Nada.

Re: Needed: SMS how-to guide...

I have made some progress: There are a couple of guides about which are helpful but which don't make clear a couple of things: 1. The address for weather reports and the 'echo' function is 262993; 2. The address for repeater status queries (and, apparently for POCSAG messages) is 262994; 3. The addr...

Needed: SMS how-to guide...

Folks, There are plenty of previous posts on the subject of SMS functionality including several by me - but I still cannot get anything reliable. My radio is a Retevis RT82 (also have a Retevis RT84 which displays identical symptoms). I have a RPi based MMDVM hot-spot. I connect to the "BM 2721...

Permitting a second callsign to use gateway...?

Folks,

Can anyone tell me how I can permit a second callsign to use my hotspot (ie not open up to public)?

Most grateful...

Re: DMRGateway Issue

DMR-YSF is a different network to Brandmeister and so, as I understand it, the Brandmeister hotspot security password feature does not apply. If you look in Configuration->Expert->DMR settings you'll see a file at the bottom of which are a series (default is 3 I think) of DMR network entries, the fi...

Re: Brandmeister Master functionality...

The destination doesn't seem to matter - I use the wx server in The Netherlands (262993) and the SMSC (262995) and for SMSGTE I was using 234999 based on the Boca Raton article here: https://brara.org/BLOG/2020/05/16/dmr-b ... messaging/

Re: Mercury "Pen" pager...

Thanks for the reply. I am confident that it is a single xtal device. Quite what cut the crystal is remains to be determined. I agree that a spot frequency would be ideally agreed. Pager networks are often criticised as noise-generators, not unreasonably in my view, so perhaps something out of the w...

Brandmeister Master functionality...

This is not a pi-star query necessarily. I have DMR Master set to "DMRGateway" in my pi-star hotspots. I have found that when I use my pi-star hotspot Brandmeister Master set to "BM_United_Kingdom_2341" I cannot: a) send text messages to anyone; b) send text messages to the 26299...

Re: Multiple DMR ids...

Thanks very much - as suggested I have contacted the admins who have placed my 'spare' CCS7 ID into the pool for re-use.

Nice and simple:-)
