Aaron: I understand the frustration ... and hope that perseverance helps resolve this issue for you.

OK - but: previously (and I've deleted the post) someone offered up a URL to a presentation that kind of touches on the point of having a repeater as well as user with the same callsign registered with the trust server. I'll plead nolo as I don't know enough about all this ... and I've sat through many a talk where Jim N5MIJ has said time and time again to forget whatever you think you know about (IP) networking in dealing with D-STAR. What seemed plausible in that presentation was the fact that the repeater will be allocated an IP in different space than the user. Don't know what situations may occur that would confuse a gateway from knowing the difference between a user and peer gateway system ... again, only a suggestion to remove the KE5KAF user call from the database as yet another idea in the troubleshooting efforts. > Right now I am trying to get a "club" callsign > so I can switch the repeater to a different callsign > and use my KE5KAF callsign on the system instead. > In the works... To be honest - if you go through the ARRL/VEC ... that takes ONE DAY. Get for people together ... they don't all have to be hams. Go to the ARRL web site and get the form. Fill it out. Fax it to them ... they usually process it in the same day and the following day you'll have an FCC systematically assigned club call / license. http://www.fcc.gov/wtb and click on the ULS link - do the lookup there ...
