TGIF Network

[WA0BKP]

Can you please add the TGIF network to the Openspot (and Openspot2)? I asuume that when you do I could make it another profile and swicth back and forth. Thank you.

As far as I know the TGIF network is a group of talkgroups on the BrandMeister network. If I'm wrong please send us more information about the network, where can we find a server list and what protocol has to be used to connect hotspots.

Hello, TGIF was associated with Brandmiester but no longer. It has been added as a new network to Pi-Star. I am afraid I cannot answer your questions in any detail but here are a couple of web addresses that may help:

Thank you for this consideration.

TGIF is simply accessed using MMDVM protocol. Attached is my own openspot configuration.

Hi, Thank you for your help. I tried this and it works great! I set the TGIF network as profile 1 and used the 90001 for switching to it. Thanks again for all your help.

My original series OpenSpot Connector screen does not have the "ADD SERVER" button, or a place to type the server address. Do I need to update the firmware, or is this an OpenSpot 2 screen?

[KW4G]

Never mind. I found that I had to tic the "Advanced Mode" box. Sorry for the bandwidth.

Test from Hamburg Germany TGIF runs with very low BER (bit-error-rate).

For european users please use:
