#trunking — Public Fediverse posts

The preferential call (priority call) functionality needs to be enabled in the #trunking controller for this to work (screenshot of option attached).

I don't keep it enabled on my repeater usually because it's annoying (the announcement replaces one voice frame in the payload channel).

But I hope someone might find this useful.

As a reminder, the whole trunking base station stack is open source, so anything can be implemented (within reason).

#DMR #hamradio

Demo of preferential calls in the #DMR #trunking system (Hytera calls these priority group).

Start: both radios subscribed to the parrot TG, Parrot is medium prio in the call priorities on radio 1.

I request TG 91 via DGNA on radio 1 (I have to do this is because it's not programmed in the same scan list as parrot on my radio).

TG 91 becomes active and I listen it. Then I initiate a call to Parrot on radio 2, and radio 1 now switches to this preferential call.

With some delay due to unforeseen issues, finally release 0.2 of the #DMR tier III #trunking controller GUI is available now.

You can download a snapshot of this release at:
https://codeberg.org/qradiolink/dmrtc/releases/tag/0.2

The main feature this release adds is partial support for the Homebrew DMR Trunking Protocol, which is currently implemented only by the Brandmeister network.
