Pi-Star help Jumbo spot

[wcu02mpa]

So I am pretty new to hot spots, but not DMR. I am a proficient MOTOTRBO programmer and have been Motorola radio programming for over twenty years. Having said that I bought a hotspot, but this thing just isn't working and I am sure it is my settings; or rather incorrect settings. I have been able to set it up, and can see where I am coming through on my dashboard but cannot see any other traffic coming in. I have registered for a brandmeister password. can someone guide me along here? I have watched about every video on youtube and have follower them to the letter. Just not sure where to go. The BER is .1% so feel frequency is good.

Assuming you have a Pi-Star hotspot (and not a SharkRF openSPOT) best place to go for help with Pi-Star is Home - pistar.uk and use the info and tools in the left sidebar. Everything you wanted to know / do re: Pi-Star.

Yes a pi-spot jumbo spot. I have no loss and BER is good. I assume I am making into brandmeister if my dashboard is populating.....

Have you set up your Brandmeister dashboard? Dashboard | BrandMeister You should be able to see if your hotspot is connected or not there. Also, I have major issues using the USA servers.. I'm on the Canada server and everything works dandy.

I have registered for a brandmeister password.

Did you use the Brandmeister "SelfCare" page to set a password for your hotspot to use, and put the same password *in* the hotspot?

That fixed it......Thank you sir and 73. Look for you all on the system.

OK.....so now that I am up and running my info isn't coming through on "last heard". Where do I set that up??

If it's just showing your DMR ID, leave it on a couple days. That's updated in the nightly update and may take a day or two.

Outstanding. Yes my ID is showing. Thanks again.
