Today, I gave an introductory presentation about ham radio DMR, how to find information about DMR repeaters in Indiana and the steps involved in programming a DMR radio with a new “codeplug.” As promised, you may get a PDF copy of my presentation slides by following the link below.

W9LW to lead DMR forum during NCI Hamfest
Are you, or is someone you know interested in getting started with DMR? Are you having trouble programming your DMR radio? Do you know where to find the needed information on every DMR repeater in Indiana?
The DMR forum during the North Central Indiana Hamfest in Peru Aug. 28 might be for you!
Hamfest planners invited me to lead a forum from 11 a.m. to noon. Below is a rough outline of what I plan to cover:
- Introduction to DMR.
- Talkgroups, DMR’s “virtual channels.”
- DMR networks, and how they’re different.
- Obtaining a DMR ID number.
- DMR repeaters: What you need to know and how to find out.
- Programming a DMR radio.
- Operating a DMR radio.
Share this info with anyone you know who’s interested in DMR.
