Saving BM TG names in Wires-X

GilGulick

Is there a way to safe BM TG names into the Wires-X memories on my FT-5D? Right now what is saving is the server name. What I am looking to do is save BM-91 under a category called DMR. I have created the category, but when I go to the TG through Quick Setup and then save, I get something called BM-UNITED STATES and I can't actually use that to access the channel. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a better way to access this TG so I can save the name?

Thanks,
Gil

Talkgroup linking/unlinking is done by the DMR server, and not the openSPOT, so it's not possible to save talkgroups. You need to start calls to make the server link/unlink a talkgroup for you. This can be done using the web interface using the Quick Call feature, or you can change your outgoing call's destination ID from your transceiver using DTMF codes: https://manuals.sharkrf.com/openspot4/en/homebrew-mmdvm-connector.html#c4fm-notes (C4FM notes section), and do a short PTT press after changing the destination ID to make the server link the TG for you.
