Thanks Rick! I wanted to make the meeting but my back wasn’t having it. I have DMR equipment and actually thought I had it functioning properly, only to find after a lapse in use either Brandmeister made system changes or my radio is kaput. I have since found it does work on some but not many talkgroups. Here’s hoping the link will help. If not, I’ve got some equipment for sale at the Hamfest.
