General Info
FinDMR Next Generation DMR network is powered by Brandmeister
We are on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/FinDMR/
FinDMR information portal is located at http://dmr.fi/
Details of DMR repeaters in Finland are available at automatic.sral.fi -service
Supporting and welcoming all repeaters and hotspots honoring local regulations. Mainly intended for Finnish and Estonian stations to connect.
Default passwords for hotspots & MMDVM etc. are disabled. Personalized passwords are required for all connections. Please read more here; https://news.brandmeister.network/configure-a-security-password-for-your-hotspots/

Talkgroups
FinDMR talkgroups are assigned to timeslots according to the general model; Countrywide and international traffic on TS1 and regional traffic on TS2.
On dynamic talkgroups the timeout is 10 minutes, handoff timer is 15 seconds.
TS1
| TG number | TG formal name | Description |
| 244 | 244 Finland | Countrywide talkgroup, static on all repeaters |
- Subscriptions to all Brandmeister network talkgroups outside Finland should be done on TS1
- TG91 is activated automatically on every repeater during Worldwide Check-In every Saturday at 1600UTC
- National FinDMR Check-in net on TG244 every Sunday at 1900hrs local time (EET)
TS2
- Regional talkgroups 244X and sub-regional talkgroups 244X1, 244X2 and 244X3 are set static on repeaters in their respective regions. Elsewhere talkgroups are available as dynamic on TS2.
- QSY talkgroups 244X0 are available as dynamic only
- X represents the respective region 1..9

Frequencies
Repeaters
The Finnish repeater allocation has specific channels reserved for digital repeaters. Most of the FinDMR network repeaters use these specific channels but there are also some which do use old mixed-mode channels. More information about repeater locations and channels can be found from automatic.sral.fi -service.
Please set the following parameters in your DMR radio for proper repeater operations;
- Admit Criteria: Please set to “Color Code (Free)”
- In Call Criteria: Please set to “Follow Admit Criteria”
Please note that users should program their radios to transmit on the Repeater RX -frequency and listen on the Repeater TX -frequency
145 MHz repeaters
- Repeater offset is -0,6 MHz
- Channel width 12,5 kHz
- Common Color Code is 1
| Channel number | Repeater TX | Repeater RX |
| V1 | 145.5750 MHz | 144.9750 MHz |
| V2 | 145.5875 MHz | 144.9875 MHz |
434 MHz repeaters
- Repeater offset is -2,0 MHz
- Channel width 12,5 kHz
- Common Color Code is 1
| Channel number | Repeater TX | Repeater RX |
| U1 | 434.5125 MHz | 432.5125 MHz |
| U2 | 434.5250 MHz | 432.5250 MHz |
| U3 | 434.5375 MHz | 432.5375 MHz |

 | No new allocations for channel U0 434.500/432.500 MHz to make space for 432.500 MHz APRS usage. Channel is to be deprecated from repeater allocations |

Simplex / DMO
For direct communication on simplex frequencies, recommendation is to use TS1 with CC1.
Please set the following parameters to your radio for DMO operations;
- Admit Criteria: Please set to “Always”
- In Call Criteria: Please set to “TXI” or “Always”
| TG number | TG formal name | Description |
| 99 | 99 DMO | Direct Mode Operations on simplex channel |
| Frequency | Usage |
| 145.375 MHz | Digital voice calling channel |
| 144.825 MHz | Simplex operations |
| 144.8375 MHz | Simplex operations |
| Frequency | Usage |
| 434.400 MHz | Digital voice calling channel |
| 434.4125 MHz | Simplex operations |
| 434.425 MHz | Simplex operations |
| 434.4375 MHz | Simplex operations |
| 434.450 MHz | Simplex operations |
Hotspot operations
 | Hotspot is not by default an licensed automatic station so it is not allowed to leave it on without direct supervision. |
For hotspot operations on simplex frequencies, recommendation is to use an arbitrary CC between 11..15. Not CC1
Please configure the actual location of your hotspot to its configuration, the location is delivered to the Brandmeister Dashboard. Please observe other hotspots in your close vicinity and use different frequency and CC to avoid looping through the system!
Please set the following parameters to your radio for hotspot operations;
- Admit Criteria: Please set to “Color Code (Free)”
- In Call Criteria: Please set to “Follow Admit Criteria”
| Frequency | Usage |
| 144.850 MHz | Hotspot operations |
| 144.8625 MHz | Hotspot operations |
| Frequency | Usage |
| 434.4625 MHz | Hotspot operations |
| 434.475 MHz | Hotspot operations |
| 434.4875 MHz | Hotspot operations |
