It depends on the server (it's the server operator's option on requiring it) but you usually/almost always do need a passcode for an -IS server, and no it is not your callsign.
The passcode is a 5 digit number based on your callsign. xastir has a utility "callpass" to generate it for you. Sorry, I don't have an xastir machine available at the moment or i'd provide specifics on where to find callpass, but you run it callpass <yourcallsign> where yourcallsign is the call you're using in the server connection. it outputs the 5 digit code. -Jason kg4wsv On Fri, May 29, 2020 at 7:59 AM Curt Mills <[email protected]> wrote: > > What's your callsign?
