[CTSARA] DMR User Registration ***IMPORTANT***

[Jon Perelstein]

If you're getting a DMR radio, you should register it with the network
administrators to get a unique Radio ID.  Every radio has to have a unique
Radio ID - if it doesn't then communications between you and other stations
may be disrupted if there are two radios with the same Radio ID on the
air.  Many networks will block you if you do not have a valid Radio ID.

There is no cost for the Radio ID.  MARC (Motorola Amateur Radio Club)
handles the registrations.  You can apply for your Radio ID at

     http://www.dmr-marc.net/cgi-bin/trbo-database/register.cgi

Just scroll down to the bottom of the page and click "User Registration".

It usually takes a few hours before they email back your Radio ID, but if
you have a radio on order you might as well get the ID now.  You will enter
it into your radio using the programming software for your radio.
