STEP 2 – DIGITAL CONTACT LIST
Without the DMR ID database loaded, the only information that
will appear on the LCD is the DMR ID number. This next step
allows the radio to display the name, DMR ID, Call sign etc. of
the station being received.
Note: The DMR Database is steadily growing and eventually you
may need to pare it down to your needs.
Marshall Dias W0OTM, has developed an excellent online DMR DB generator.

Select the radio model from the dropdown and follow the 3 Steps to download the latest
formatted DMR ID database. Save this .csv file and prepare to import the database to
the software. The downloaded DB will be in the following format.
Note: If you decide to alter the information in the database, do not change the column
headings or delete any of the columns.
To enter the current DB:
- Save the database generated from the link above.
- Use the TOOL / Import function to load the database .csv file.
- Click on Digital Contact List and select the location of the downloaded DB file.
- Select Import at the bottom of the screen. (Loads DB to software image).
Because of the size of the database, it may take upwards of 5 minutes to load the data.
Once loaded to the software, the data can be viewed by selecting
DMR ID List from the menu on the left. The DB record will be
broken down into 20K segments.
