OK Nate,
You almost confused me in your below example. so just so others understand. The YOUR: Your call sign in your example should actually be represented by MY: My Call Your Call is always the called stations call sign or CQCQCQ. not to be confused with your own call. So I suggest we always refer to the other guys call in examples by YOUR Call (UR:) and our own call sign by MY Call (MY:) !!! It is also always good to refer users to the D-STAR <http://www.dstarinfo.com/Calculator/DSTAR%20Web%20Calculator.aspx> Calculator so they can enter in the information and get back the correct call routing. Learning how to use the calculator will most likely lend itself to a better understanding of what call routing is all about to the user.

If you haven't done that, or don't know what it means, contact your local Gateway operator for more details. Are you callsign routing to your friend, or are you using dPlus linking of the repeaters? If you have your friend link to your repeater from here, and have the following in your radio... UR: CQCQCQ RPT1: W7MOT++B (if you're on UHF) RPT2: W7MOT++G YOUR: Your callsign (I like to use "+" to represent SPACEs in e-mails. Use SPACES, of course, in your rig.) If you're saying that this works locally: UR: CQCQCQ RPT1: W7MOT++B RPT2: W7MOT++C Your: Your callsign This is because you're not using the Gateway at all in that configuration. You're routing via the repeater controller only. Anyone, registered or unregistered can do this on a multiple-module system. It's when you have the Gateway in RPT2, that you must be fully and completely registered with a terminal on the system, before anyone will hear you. Holler if you need more help... plenty of folks here who know how this all works. 73, maybe talk to you on W0CDS sometime... -- Nate Duehr, WY0X W0CDS Gateway Admin (The guys on the other end - Colorado!
