How to show call sign instead of ID?

Post by sm7rdx »

Today I got my Pi-star working on DMR but when I look at the dashboard all foreign call signs are shown but local
(swedish) call signs aren't. Instead I see their DMR ID. A friend of mine sees all call signs as they should.
I run Beta 4.1.0-RC7
Should there be any difference?

Has the system been allowed to run an update? (I believe these will automatically run in the early morning hours if the unit is left powered up -- otherwise SSH to the unit and invoke "sudo pistar-update")

It may just be that the callsign database isn't up to date. Of course, it may also be that some EU countries (for example) have carried "privacy" so far as to prohibit even a callsign database lookup.

Perhaps you are right. When I had a look five minutes ago I could see mostly call signs instead of ID.
I belive my Pi-star updates at five o'clock or so.
