BrandMeister
GB7WI is connected to BrandMeister network providing reliable digital communications to radio amateurs worldwide.
Having two Time Slots (TS) allows two conversations to take
place simultaneously using one frequency. This means you can
be talking to someone on TS1 using the Yorkshire Talk Group TG
23560 whilst another station uses TS2 to connect to World Wide
TG 91.
A huge advantage of BrandMeister is that it is dedicated to
amateur radio, you can use Motorola and Hytera repeaters,
GPS/GPRS, Reflectors and you can use a DMR
hotspot/dongle/accesspoint and homebrew DMR repeaters! No
matter where you are in the world, if a repeater is available
or not, whether you are in your car, house or in a hotel room
you will have the capability for worldwide communication.
