Attention:

Please be aware that many (if not all) DMR radios DO NOT transmit your callsign when sending a GPS position. It is your responsibility to identify your station per the regulations of your country.

 

APRS/GPS

When a position is received by this gateway, it will extract the coordinates and create an APRS position packet. This gateway will find your callsign based your radio's DMR ID. It is essential to have your information up to date with RadioID.net. A default APRS SSID is appended your callsign. The APRS location packet is then uploaded to APRS-IS. No setup or account creation is required beforehand.

You can change the default APRS settings for your radio via SMS. If you have an account, you may also change your APRS settings by navigating to Settings > APRS Settings.
