Worldwide Test Transmissions - Parrot Calls[edit]

When checking connectivity and audio transmissions on the BrandMeister Network, make a PRIVATE CALL to 9990 and not a group call. Alternatively and more correctly users should in fact make a private call to their MCC code and 997, to achieve the same thing. For example for the UK a private call to 234997 will generate a parrot response. The MCC code is the first three digit of their national group call, as 310 for the USA, 272 for Ireland, and 208 for France. However for these to respond correctly your repeater or hotspot should be connected to the appropriate master.

Making a private call on 9990, ensures that what is transmitted, up to a time length of 90 seconds, is returned to the user making the call.

The resulting quality can be ascertained by the repeated transmission in order for the user to make appropriate adjustments if he or she needs to do so.

This transmission can be made on either time slot on a repeater system, or the single time slot of a simplex hotspot.

A transmission with 9990 as a group call serves no purpose.

That said, the current Pi-Star software in DMR-Gateway function can accept a group call 9990, but is type rewritten to a private call in the ReWrite functions of the Gateway.

Listening to Transmissions[edit]

At present, the application formerly known as HoseLine on BrandMeister is not supported or operational, despite the presence of links within these pages. Any future development of this application in its present form has ceased for the time being.

Worldwide Talk Groups[edit]

The talk groups that are available worldwide and based on the spoken language and geographic area. These talk groups may be configured as Dynamic Talk Groups in your area which are contacted by a PTT press on a group contact number. After the PTT press, the repeater transmits activity on this talk group for 15 minutes after last PTT press.

Where possible please do not activate these TalkGroups on repeaters where there are centres of activity on the same time slot. Please consider doing so on the quieter slot. In any case consult your local repeater protocols, or discuss with your repeater sysop. On a personal hotspot of course you may do as you please.
