Register your call sign at a gateway repeater

To make a Gateway call through the Internet, you must register your call sign at a 

repeater that has a gateway, usually one near you.

About the registration process described:

This section describes the call sign registration process at a repeater that is connected 

to the US Trust server. There are other systems as well, and they have their own 

registration process. For information on how to register on one of them, contact the 

administrator of a repeater that uses the alternate system.

NOTE:

 If needed, ask the gateway repeater administrator for call sign registration 

instructions.

Step 1: Access the call sign registration screen

1.  Access the following URL to find the gateway repeater closest to you. 

http://www.dstarusers.org/repeaters.php

2.  Click the call sign of the repeater that you want to register to.

3.  Click the “Gateway Registration URL:” link address.

4.  The “D-STAR Gateway System” screen is displayed.  

Click <Register> to start the New User registration. 

Click

Step 2: Register your call sign

1.  Follow the registration instructions found there.

2.  When you receive a notification from the administrator, your call sign registration has 

been approved.

NOTE:

 It may take a few days for the administrator to approve you.
