Re: TM-V71A USB speed setting

 

I run either xp or 7 for all my stuff.? The interface on something newer is not for me.? I like to do research so I can help others later.? Not all amateurs are on GIO.? And part of the hobby is finding out " why ".
I used the OEM software at work but the RT Systems software have a nice layout and features. Plus, they actually answer the phone or email :)?? I understand everyone is different and that's cool. Thanks for the input.

Re: nxr-1700 DMR set up

 

Unless that repeater had the Network option installed when ordered it is not functional, it is an option.? I believe at this time that function is only for NXDN.?


Re: nxr-1700 DMR set up

 

The process to connect to Brandmeister should be 'similar' to connecting a XPR8300 or XPR8400 to Brandmeister.
You need to get an account for a repeater and the it's repeater ID on Brandmeister.
You need to get a "Master Server" assigned to you from the Bandmaster folks

You can then connect to the Master Server by it's IP address and your password for the account you setup the same way you would for a XPR8400
The fields in the programing software for 'IP CONNECT' should have synonyms for the same thing.?
