Hi Josh, Please check the format of the callsign. It must be 4 letters and only 3 digits. You probably have an I not the number one.

Currently, only one account can be created per GMRS callsign as a security measure to prevent multiple random people from trying to register the same callsign. This works fine for families where one member is the coordinator of the communications, but I know it isn't ideal when multiple people have an interest in participating independently. I was thinking about changing the user accounts on this website to allow a single "main account" per callsign. The account holder can then create multiple subaccounts sharing the same callsign: this way, the account holder/licensee controls who may share their license regarding a myGMRS account and we prevent the issue of random people trying to claim a callsign over and over again. Imagine how many people would try to claim mine, for example. What does everyone think about that?

We update the database daily, but the FCC data we have access to is typically 1-2 days behind the FCC website, unfortunately.

Alright, I think this topic has run its course...

Recently, the FCC has clarified its interpretation of the GMRS rules regarding repeater linking by stating that linked repeaters are against the rules. For years, the Part 95 rules have been unclear about whether repeater linking falls under Remote Control, Interconnection, or something else entirely. FCC Clarification (Click the Operations tab) A GMRS user asked the Commission for clarification several years ago and received a response that it was indeed allowed. This letter had been posted online. Given that decision and the nebulous state of the Part 95 rules, we have operated under the assumption that this was permitted. While this clarification is not binding and does not update the actual Part 95 rules, it shows that the FCC is against repeater linking and at least intends for it to be prohibited. Given this new information, it is in our best interest to begin shutting down the myGMRS Network, which allows repeater owners to link using VoIP technology over the Internet. We will shut down the myGMRS registration server in one week, on August 28th, 2024. The main myGMRS website will not be affected and will continue to serve the GMRS community as it has for nearly 20 years. Connections between repeaters or audio are not carried through our servers; only the registration server is used to keep a listing of which nodes are online at any given time. Disabling the registration server will not break the connection to existing nodes; it will only prevent new connections from occurring. Repeater owners who continue using VoIP or other means to link repeaters together will do so at their own risk. myGMRS is committed to operating within the FCC rules and aims to maintain a positive rapport with the Commission. Should the Commission's stance change, we will reconsider whether to bring the network back at that time. If you wish to sign, there is a Change.org petition to request that the FCC allow network connections. Change.org Petition to Allow GMRS Linking

Everything should be working now. Try logging out and back in.

I refreshed your Premium Member status on your forum account and you should have access now!

You are entering an invalid callsign. This is not an issue with the website. WSC1776 is not in the right format. It must be 4 letters and 3 digits for recent callsigns. Please double check your callsign. A good truck is to try and find your license on the FCC website. If you can't find it there, you have it wrong.

@WRZK971 It should be working now.

For the time being we only support Stripe as a payment processor for credit and debit cards. PayPal is supported for making club payments and receiving payouts if you're a paid club owner, but that's because it's a separate system. Since all payment details are handled by Stripe directly, we don't store your card information in our system. Stripe is the leading payment processor and powers many credit card payment platforms including Shopify stores, like our online shop. This is the most secure method to handle payments in a PCI-compliant way.

You have to delete the repeater. Adding a listing to the database makes you the owner, and requests will go to you. If you are NOT the owner, do not list the repeater without the owner's consent. Remove it from the "Owned Repeaters" tab of this page: https://mygmrs.com/profile/repeaters

Honestly, I'd be surprised if this got FCC approval. Actually, scratch that, the RT10 got FCC approval and I'm confident that is not legal for 900 MHz at 1W as license-free DMR. Pretty sure that squeaked by and so might this little gem.

Meshtastic also supports voice using Codec 2 on LoRa but only on 2.4 GHz radios due to the bandwidth constraints. That's what makes audio on UHF interesting. https://meshtastic.org/docs/configuration/module/audio/
