An update to an update: the APRS service SMSGTE has been replaced by one simply called SMS.

It works very similarly to the original SMSGTE, with the exception being that people have to opt-in to receive messages ahead of time. Aliases can still be created, but so far this has to be done over the APRS network itself and cannot be done via the webpage.

#APRS #SMS #SMSGTE

Okay, #HamRadio Mastodon, I have a question that I apparently need handholding to answer:

I have a #Radioddity #GD88 that I want to use to send #DMR SMS msgs to #SMSGTE.

I have DMR working. I have a #PiStar working and comms with #BrandMeister.

What specific steps do I need to take to actually get this thing to correctly send a DMR SMS to my phone?

Also trying to get #APRS text messaging working, but that seems like it might be a missing feature, not a lack of understanding.
