 As it stands currently, all MMDVM Repeaters in the UK are connected to the ‘A’ server, Hotspot Users are generally  connected to the ‘F’ server, and Motorola and Hytera Repeaters are connected to the ‘K’ server, and the so-called FreeDMR network that has some other differences has its own server. All four are interlinked that allows the 235, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, and regional talk groups to pass between them. As it stands currently, all MMDVM Repeaters in the UK are connected to the ‘A’ server, Hotspot Users are generally  connected to the ‘F’ server, and Motorola and Hytera Repeaters are connected to the ‘K’ server, and the so-called FreeDMR network that has some other differences has its own server.

 +As an overview I see a DMR communciation system that has been fractured for sometime for probably several reasons, that I shall not discuss. There are several networks with BrandMeister and IPSC2 being the most populated. There are currently 84 UK Repeaters on BrandMeister and 70 on IPSC2, however there are a small number like mine - GB7HT - that are on both. There are 9 repeaters on FreeStar (FreeDMR).

 I joined DMR just as BrandMeister was developing, and my first entry was via the short-lived DV4Mini stick. But it was interesting. Then I built the first of three repeaters. I joined DMR just as BrandMeister was developing, and my first entry was via the short-lived DV4Mini stick. But it was interesting.

-You can find the basis of a code plug on qrz.com/db/gb7ht. The repeater uses the Talk Group Re-write options in the DMR-Gateway. You can view this repeater at http://gb7ht.ddns.net:8080 on a Pi-Star dashboard.+You can find the basis of a code plug on qrz.com/db/gb7ht.

 I have since been deeply involved in Raspberry Pi and SVXLink, about which I shall write in due course. I have since been deeply involved in Raspberry Pi and SVXLink, about which I shall write in due course.
