Attention:

Please be aware that many (if not all) DMR radios DO NOT transmit your callsign when sending a GPS position. It is your responsibility to identify your station per the regulations of your country.

 

{{description}}

Configure your radio to send GPS positions with the following settings:

Data Call Type DMR ID
 {{data_call_type}}  {{data_call_id}}

 

When a position is received by this gateway, it will extract the coordinates and create an APRS position packet. This gateway will find your callsign based your radio's DMR ID. It is essential to have your information up to date with RadioID.net. A predefined APRS SSID of {{aprs_ssid}} is appended your callsign. The APRS location packet is then uploaded to APRS-IS. No setup or account creation is required beforehand. This is pretty much "plug and play."

For example, N0CALL has a DMR ID of 1234567. N0CALL's radio sends a position to this gateway with the call type settings above. This gateway will query the RadioID.net database for DMR ID 1234567. The result will be an APRS location packet with APRS SSID {{aprs_ssid}}.

You can change the default APRS settings for your radio via SMS.

Commands

Command

Description

Example

@COM Change the comment of the APRS. @COM This is a test comment.
@ICON Change the icon of the APRS position. *See http://aprs.net/vm/DOS/SYMBOLS.HTM for icon list. @ICON /p
@SSID Change SSID of your callsign. @SSID 7
@MH Set you location by maidenhead grid square. Designed for radios with no GPS or that are not compatable yet. @MH DN97uk
@BB Post a bulliten to the web dashboard. @BB This is a test bulletin.
@[CALLSIGN W/ SSID] A-[MESSAGE] Send a message to another station via APRS. @N0CALL-15 A-This is a test.
[EMAIL ADDRESS] E-[MESSAGE] Send an email to an email address. test@example.org E-This is a test.

 

Commands should be in upper case. Send an SMS to {{data_call_id}} as a {{data_call_type}} with the desired command followed by the value. For example, to change your icon to a dog, the command would be @ICON /p (see the icon table for values). Changing your SSID is as simple as @SSID 7, and @COM Testing 123 will change the comment.

Sending @BB Test will result in a post to the bulletin board with the messaage of "Test".

To remove any of the stored values, just send the appropriate command without any input. @COM will remove the stored comment, @ICON will remove the stored icon, and @ICON will remove the strored icon. Any position reports sent will have the default settings.
