Setting up your transceiver
Here are some tips on setting up different types of transceivers.
DMR radio setup
Set up a simplex channel (with the same RX and TX frequencies). You can set the timeslot to any value, as it
is not used in simplex mode.
Set the channel's color code to the openSPOT3's color code (by default it's 1, it can be changed on the
Settings page, DMR settings section).
Set the TX contact for the current channel to the talkgroup you want to talk on. If you want to use a
reflector, or
Homebrew call rerouting , set it to ID 9 with a group call (which means TG9).
Create an RX group list and add TG9 to it. Assign this RX group list to the previously created simplex channel.
This way you'll be able to hear the openSPOT3's voice announcements, which will be sent to TG9.
Create a contact with private call to ID 9999, which is the openSPOT3's built-in
local echo service . Make a
call to this ID to test the connection between the transceiver and the openSPOT3.
Run AutoCal in case you have voice quality issues. See the
AutoCal's usage description in the Connectors
section below.
Take a look at the example channel configurations .
D-STAR® radio setup
Set the radio to single frequency mode.
If you want to use a reflector, set the URCALL on your radio to CQCQCQ, and the local module on the
openSPOT3 to D.
If you want to use a gateway, set the URCALL on your radio to the gateway's callsign and remote module.
The remote module should be the last character of the URCALL. Make sure you have registered your local
module on the D-STAR® gateway registration system. If you have a registration, you have probably
registered the "space" local module. In this case set your openSPOT3's local module to a space (empty)
character.

You don't have to care about RPT1 and RPT2 settings.
You can make a test call to the openSPOT3's built-in
local echo service to test the connection between the
transceiver and the openSPOT3 by setting the URCALL to
.......E
(7 spaces and an E, replace dots with
spaces).
Take a look at the D-STAR® APRS® page if you want to forward your transceiver's GPS position to the APRS®
network.
If you use a Kenwood TH-D74A transceiver, then make sure the Direct Reply feature is turned off, as it basically
causes automatic callsign routing, which could cause one's transmission to not be heard on the used reflector.
C4FM/Fusion® radio setup
Set the radio to single frequency mode.
Use digital narrow (DN) mode. Voice wide (VW) mode does not support late entry.
If your radio has half deviation mode turned on, make sure you use the C4FM Half Deviation modem mode
on the openSPOT3.
You can make a test call to the openSPOT3's built-in
local echo service to test the connection between the
transceiver and the openSPOT3 by setting the DGID to 99 in your radio. Don't forget to set the DGID back to
