I'm going to reply to myself as something just struck me. When I use my new VK3 call I haven't had much luck getting outside the gateway (although I haven't tried that much)... I'm thinking I need to register my new call because it doesn't see me as K5EJP anymore. Interesting...

This is true. I'm registered to K5CTX where I used to live, but now I use VK3RWN. Never bothered changing the registration. -e VK3EJP / K5EJP ________________________________ From: Tony Langdon <vk3...@gmail. com> To: dstar_digital@ yahoogroups. com Sent: Tue, October 20, 2009 2:02:40 PM Subject: Re: [DSTAR_DIGITAL] newbe ?

Normally, the convention is you register with the gateway that's closest to you. If you have one in your local area, register there, otherwise you could pick one in an area you're likely to frequent. Remember to register at only ONE gateway. Also, once your registration is approved, you have to create a "terminal" for your D-STAR radio, so it can access the network. There is documentation out there, someone will be able to supply the link. 73 de VK3JED / VK3IRL http://vkradio. com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
