My #JumboSpot arrived today. Instructions not included. Perfect.

I will make this a next week problem.

#DMR #hamr #HamRadio #TGIF

@lancetay lmk if you need any help with it. I'm pretty good with hotspots and pi-star (or WPSD)

@bud_t No joy here. Put in web config and no can ping. Does this scrolling display look normal? Anyways, Dental appointment in the morning first thing. I am looking forward to that, it will be less painful it seems. #JumboSpot

@bud_t Oofda. Already regretting not buying an OpenSpot 4 now. Is this true, if so my SSID has a space and is longer "Commodore 128"

Wait what? Now I see a Pi-Star in the Networks list? My last change was to comment out the hashses and leave the clear text in. Anyways, tomorrow problem.

Can't connect to wifi & wpa_supplicant.conf dissapears - forum.pistar.uk

@bud_t Well, after hacking the super secure password 'raspberry' I can connect to it in AP mode. So, this is where I am at now.
@bud_t Have tried to connect it to three different networks now (5 Ghz,2 Ghz, and Hotspot from my Phone called "VA6LAT" and still will not connect. Hmmm.. enough 'radio fun' for me tonight. #SYS4738
@bud_t I registered this DMR_ID I think 3 years ago, still have not used it.
@bud_t Well, Holy Kaw! A connection has been made, not sure where my DMRID is supposed to be entered (I think only available if I chose DMR). I am just trying to get it working for DSTAR and my ICOM705 at the moment. DMR radio is on order and will be here soon. Anyways, another step forward. Gnite, thanks for listening.👍 73
@bud_t Hmmm...
@bud_t I am looking forward to my dental appointment early in the morning. It will be less painful.

@bud_t Good times. Will leave it at this for now. This rabbit hole goes deep. Backup! Lol!

Can listen but not talk out - forum.pistar.uk

@lancetay is your hotspot receiving your radio? When you key up does the hotspot hear you? If not you might need to adjust RXoffset to minimize BER
@bud_t No RF. I can hear people from Scotland 5x5 on REF030C.
@bud_t Off to the Dentist to get another hole drilled into my head. HIHI
DStar Should be renamed to BlondeStar

@bud_t It was at this moment, I saw the light, and it was no longer a trainwreck to be.

The answer was 'B'.

@lancetay so it was a radio config issue. D-STAR programming can be a bit odd
@bud_t Hyup! ID-TEN-T problem. 🤦‍♂️

@bud_t I will check my radio settings when I get back. Whenever I switch reflectors on pistar the radio seems to confirm. Unsure how to change on radio though to do linking.
