DMRId.dat data source

[kb2ear]

Today I had a ham from Russia check in to the local DMR talkgroup and he showed up on the dashboard as just numbers. The ID is 2503041. We did some digging and found that the ID is valid on both the radioid.net and ham-digital.org databases. I checked the http://www.radioid.net/static/user.csv and hs is NOT in the list there. So I did some more digging and found that radioid.net has changed the URL for the data to: https://database.radioid.net/static/user.csv and he is in there. He also exists in the https://ham-digital.org/status/users.csv.

So what is the source for the pistar DMRId.dat data?

I can only imagine that other data is missing if using the old radioid.net source.

Thanks & 73,

Thanks for letting me know, the short answer is yes - its one of those two, at various times we have swapped back and forth, it could be that I have not moved the update server over to the new radioid source, either way, I'll look into it.

Mystery solved....
So this ID was brand new in the database, thats why, the ID only appeared in the database after I forced an update, we (more accurately the update server) pulls the DMR database once per day, to make sure that Pi-Star is never the reason that those hosts need to pay more to host their services (we do the same thing with all of the update processes - taking the full load from the Pi-Star userbase and not impacting the services we depend on).

So - in this case, the only issue was one of timing, the ID is now in the database, it would have been there after the next update pass anyway, but now you know how/why this happened.

Hello, my Pi Star does not update the database, what can be the reason? I am updating Pi-Star but the database is not updated.
