The PAPA System is evaluating the BrandMeister network for it's Motorola MotoTRBO DMR Repeaters.  This is one of several posts with information about the features and capabilities of the BrandMeister network.  Please see the links at the bottom of this page for reference links.

The BrandMeister servers have a gateway to APRS.fi for location information.  Setting up GPS support on your radio is easy and once setup works well.  Basic settings can be found at http://bm.pd0zry.nl/index.php/Motorola_Radios.  You will need to update the ARS Radio ID based on your country.  See the country specific page on the BrandMeister wiki for details.  For the US this is https://bm.pd0zry.nl/index.php/United_States

Reflector vs Talkgroups

One of the big things I hear on Brandmeister is … What are the talkgroups? Well here they are. One thing you have to remember is reflectors and talkgroups are two different things.

Reflectors range from 4000-4999 and are a link to a talkgroup. If you are on a DMR repeater and on timeslot 2 talkgroup 9 you can access a reflector as a private call to that reflector. Do a private call to that number, key up for a few seconds and then unkey. You will get a british female voice come back to you letting you know the number you are connected to.

Doing a private call to 5000 will tell you what you are connected to,  and a manual dial to 4000 will disconnect you.

Does anyone know of an online map that displays all known Brandmeister repeaters? Similar to the way the DMR-MARC site shows repeaters affiliated with their network?
