New here and new HAM. Hello. Looking forward to Friday to try and check-in via DMR. Think I have the talk group programmed correctly!

Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

SOTA is probably more QRP backpack type operation, POTA isn't as much though it can be if you want. With POTA people often operate from their vehicle as they just need to be within the boundary of the park.

I am very new to DMR. I am setting up the Anytone handheld that a lot of people have. Neither of these talkgroup numbers came up on the Brandmeister Talkgroup List (Talkgroups | BrandMeister)
I am just curious if I am missing something or they are not supposed to be on the Talkgroup list? Maybe because it's a bridge?

I tried both last Friday evening, and I didn't hear anything on either. I showed up on the Last Heard list for both, but I ended up going to Echolink on my iPad to hear the net.

Will you try again tomorrow (Friday)? I will listen for you.

For SOTA I’m using a couple of kit built radios... for POTA I’m using my IC-7100 with either a Shortened EFHW antenna or ham sticks depending on the park.
My IC-7100 Go-Kit
I don’t have any pictures of my QRP radios as of yet. (I still need to build the kits which will start in a couple of weeks.)

Happy Thursday! Just a reminder about the weekly OB ham radio net tomorrow night. I'll be your net controller and the topic for this week is "What are your trip plans or what is on your bucket list for 2021 now that things seem to be opening back up?" If you don't have anything planned, then that's ok too. Just jump in and say hello!

Hello Everyone,
Following up on our discussion from a couple nets ago, I pulled off my first POTA activation last weekend. The park was the Mt. Baker Snoqualmie National Forest, POTA number K4530. I made 13 contacts calling CQ POTA then a few more once the WPX SSB contest began. I think I've go this thing figured out. It was pretty easy to send in the logs for credit and shouldn't be to difficult announcing and spotting myself (didn't do either this time). Below are a couple of pics.

I tried tonight... But I'm missing something with the DMR access. Is there anything special for programming the BM bridge# instead of a regular talkgroup# ? Other TGs seem to be working tonight, but these two bridges I have nothing.
Thanks.

Hey Mike. I'm sorry that didn't work tonight. I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to DMR and talk groups. We may have to work with the Starlink folks to troubleshoot.

Working on awning for JK jeep. How to connect with no basket: how to connect to top - DIY project. VK7VWK - is there a roof rail system? No rail, nothing on top. Composite material. | |
