#brandmeister — Public Fediverse posts

So the #pistar has been deployed. Setup to have #hubnet and the London 2538 TGs as the TSs in the dual hat. TS2 will share dynamic requests.

A Pi zero and a DMR radio I’ve had in the draw for a long time indeed never used are blaring alive!

#hamradio #brandmeister

Spent the whole day configuring a codeplug for my DMR radio.

Haven’t seen such an overengineered system for a long time… and after all it feels like a complicated but yet limited version of Clubhouse…

Maybe I’m doing it wrong? Maybe I’m missing something?

Brandmeister & their policies are openly hostile against the spirit of ham radio. The people who run that network are a bunch of jerks. Many of them are also incredibly toxic & also homophobic/transphobic. For my concern, they all can go fuck themselves.

DMR (Digital Mobile Radio) is a standard for digital communication used in amateur radio. The BrandMeister Network connects DMR repeaters worldwide over the internet.

You can listen in from your browser: https://hose.brandmeister.network

New hams, do you have mic fright? Key up on the Worldwide talkgroup. You might wind up in a pileup and… okay, maybe that’s not the best advice. Effective, but not the best.

Just a reminder for ham radio ops: The folks at Brandmeister are total bigots and absolute jackasses who think it's totally cool to attack, harass, and misgender my friends.

There are other ways to use DMR. Don't use BM.

#MARTS check net for 2M and 70CM today. Any DMR user can use talk group 50210 on #brandmeister

Had a #QSO on #Brandmeister half an hour ago. When I checked my logbook I saw it's the first connection for more than half a year!
That is due to a long term repeater outage (I have no hotspot). They repaired the repeater in the meantime, but this fact is not always present to me.

#hamradio

I checked in to the Pride Radio Group net for the first time!

Finally got my #DMR hotspot to work on a network other than #Brandmeister

Looks like #FreeDMR was having trouble, so I connected via #TGIF instead

squeee!

Hmmm, ktoś używa TG 2606 na #Brandmeister #DMR

#krótkofalarstwo

I wrote up my adventures on fixing my #DMR #hotspot on my #blog here,

https://k8vsy.radio/2023/09/recent-adventures-fixing-dmr-hotspot.html

I added some details and tried to cover as much as possible from the threads on here.

My goal is that it might help someone in the future with their own DMR hotspot.

Update on my #DMR #hotspot

#WPSD is working now with the config page saving successfully!

I had to rewipe the SD card and re-config the Wi-Fi

I got it configured for #Brandmeister and #FreeDMR and I've been able to connect my radio and TX and RX DMR!

This is exciting!

Next step, see if I can get D-Star working for my ID-5100A to this hotspot lol

#HamRadio #AmateurRadio

On #DMR monitoring #Fedihams and the Michigan DMR TG 3126 on #brandmeister .

Fedihams info is here https://dk1mi.radio/fedihams/ thanks to @DK1MI

Nets Sunday 2200 UTC (informal, in English); Wednesday 1930 UTC (#Chaosrunde in German); first Friday, 1800 UTC (#Draussenfunker in German).

On the bright side, this repeater is line-of-sight and within about a half mile of one of my favorite #discgolf courses, so I'll be able to ragchew next time I go throw, so long as I'm still able to hop onto a given #Brandmeister TG.

Still...I'm pretty happy with where I've progressed along the #DMR learning curve thus far.

#FreshHam

Repeater allows kerchunking on TS2 to access a given channel according to #DMRTexas, but TS2 is listed as a static local channel on #Brandmeister.

So I just programmed everything with both timeslots and figure I'll monkey around with it when I'm trying to broadcast and figure out which one is true, then submit a correction to DMRTexas if necessary.

#DMR #MD380

Been listening to some random #brandmeister talk groups on #hamradio -- do folks talk about anything other than weather, their radio, or pooping?

Not complaining, just thought it’s kind of funny.

First #DMR #Brandmeister #QSO for more than a year this afternoon. No hotspot, I worked via a relay.
#hamradio

Well, it looks like I successfully made contact with the #W6SRR "DMR of Anarchy" DMR repeater in San Ramon, CA, at least I could see my own traffic on the #brandmeister hose line. But no comebacks at the moment on TG 31666 or 5150.

http://www.dmrofanarchy.org/Repeater-Maps/page9/

It's clear though that #RepeaterBook is less helpful for #DMR information, you really need to know a fair bit about that kind of repeater (networks, talkgroups, time slots, color codes) which that site doesn't capture.

New project announcement!

Dynamic DMR contact list generator. Keep your list of contacts down so it can fit on older DMR radios. (The list is generated only from users who connect to DMR)

Last night, (Tues March 21st, 2023) as I was driving, I was tuned into the #ColoradoAstronomyNet on #SkyHubLink - #Brandmeister Talkgroup 310847. Net begins Tuesdays at 1900 MTN (2100 Eastern) ~ "[The net] has been on the 146.940 RMRL repeater since 1996 & is very interesting... Not only great astronomical information but interesting subjects related to all things in the heavens!" ~ #HamRadioNets #AmateurRadioNets #DMRnets #DigitalHamRadioNets #TruckerHam #KE0FFTnets ~ https://skyhublink.com/nets/

Listening to the weekly Antenna Net on the PAPA System via many repeaters and modes as well as #Brandmeister DMR Talkgroup # 31078. Net started at 1900PDT / 2200EDT and 0200UTC. #HamRadioNets #AmateurRadioNets #DMRnets ~ https://papasys.com/calendar/papa-nets/

Listening to the Tennessee Statewide Net - which started at 2100EDT / 0100UTC on #Brandmeister DMR Talkgroup # 3147. #DMRnets #HamRadioNets #AmateurRadioNets

My Wednesday March 8th, 2023's programmed #Brandmeister [BM] DMR talkgroups & possible nets this evening (some may be off the air): BM 3149822 - EPARA DMR Ragchew Net - 1930EST // BM 311899 - Central Illinois Skywarn Net (possibly at 1930EST? - will confirm) // BM 3129 - Missouri DMR Net - 2030EST // BM 31171 - Illinois Digital Net - 2100EST // BM 31012 - Amateur Radio Astronomy Net - 2100EST - I'm always listening to BM 31663 "Truck-N-Travel." #TruckerHam #KE0FFT #HamRadioNets #AmateurRadioNets

Okay, #HamRadio Mastodon, I have a question that I apparently need handholding to answer:

I have a #Radioddity #GD88 that I want to use to send #DMR SMS msgs to #SMSGTE.

I have DMR working. I have a #PiStar working and comms with #BrandMeister.

What specific steps do I need to take to actually get this thing to correctly send a DMR SMS to my phone?

Also trying to get #APRS text messaging working, but that seems like it might be a missing feature, not a lack of understanding.

#AmateurRadio

Papa-System Multi-Mode Thursday Night Net - starting now. I’m listening on #Brandmeister TG 31078. But there are other options on their website ~ http://websites.milonic.com/papasys.com #HamRadioNets #DigitalHamNets #AmateurRadioNet

My digital #HamRadio is hanging out with me in my office today until either the battery dies or I have to get the kids from school. If you do #DMR hit me up! I'm on #Brandmeister and my DMR ID is 3191220.
