I have a BTECH DMR-6X2 (Base Model). I started getting into DMR yesterday and I have programmed my radio to 2 local repeaters. 1 repeater I can not connect to (assuming it is down) but the other I can and I see the green light come on saying I am receiving a transmission. I can transmit as well but I do not know if my signal is being received. Radionet does not show any DMR activity for my ID.
This is the repeater information I am using for the working repeater:

Channel Info:

Talkgroup Info:

Radio ID:

Put the time slot on Time Slot 1 and try that. Then enter the Receive Talk Group of your choice, which I see is 3147, which looking closer with my glasses on is Time slot 2, Talk Group 3147, so keep it on TS 2 and enter the 3147 into the receive group list. Usually the drop down box is used, but your software may allow you to enter it manually.
Most DMR users enter the repeater twice with TS1 on one and TS2 on the second. The Talk Group can then be entered by a list you can create in the code plug. Some hams will enter the repeater for each talk group, but that takes up a lot of valuable memory. However, you could do that to begin with until you get the hang of programming code plugs.
I'm only a beginner myself, and there are hams on this website that are a lot more experienced than I am.
Edit to Add: You Radio ID, I think, should be your DMR ID which is a 7 digit number assigned to you by RadioID.net. Or you may have entered it elsewhere in the radio software.
Good Luck and 73!
