Registration<BR><BR>Mike,<BR><BR>In answer to your question:<BR>Richard
Hoskin advised, via this group, that the Gateway server had been<BR>repaired
on 24 Feb and that it he hoped it would be returned to the site<BR>in the
next few weeks. He had set it up at a temporary location to<BR>allow
people to re-register.<BR><BR>He then advised on 2 March that it had been
taken offline, from its<BR>temporary location, in preparation for relocation
back to the repeater<BR>site in the near future.<BR><BR>The Gateway had
suffered a major problem originally requiring a complete<BR>rebuild.
Since Richard's email on 24 Feb there has been a<BR>teleconference
with a number of D-STAR Gateway administrators from<BR>around Australia and
work has been undertaken by several people to<BR>develop and test backup and
recovery scripts. This has been designed to<BR>minimise the impact if
this unfortunate event occurs again. All of this<BR>takes time.
In most circumstances each visit to a repeater site takes<BR>at least
1/2 day, so it makes more sense to plan and prepare properly,<BR>than to
rush a service back into operation which will probably require<BR>further
visits. Please remember that this is a hobby and people do<BR>things
when they can, unless of course you would like to start paying<BR>commercial
rates for a commercial grade of service.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR><BR>David

text/plain;
charset="us-ascii"<BR><BR>James,<BR><BR>I'll break this reply up into a few
sections to try to answer your<BR>question.<BR><BR>To talk locally through
your local D-STAR repeater you do not have to be<BR>registered on the D-STAR
G2 network. Even if you place the local<BR>Gateway callsign (eg:
VK2RDS G (South Sydney)) in RPT2 you will not be<BR>heard outside of the
local D-STAR repeater, except by users of DV<BR>Dongles. However any
DPRS (GPS) information will be picked up by the<BR>dPLUS application (if it
is running on the local Gateway computer) and<BR>transfer positional
information across to the APRS-IS.<BR><BR>Technically you can be registered
on any D-STAR G2 Gateway around the<BR>world, however the common and
generally accepted international practice<BR>is to be registered through
your local Gateway, which allows details to<BR>be locally validated.
Once registered your callsign will be propagated<BR>(over a few hours)
to all of the other D-STAR G2 Gateways, around the<BR>world and you will be
able to access any system through any<BR>appropriately configured G2 Gateway
and people will be able to find you.<BR>Which-ever Gateway you register on,
will be the one that you need to<BR>perform any of your account management
in the future. This could be<BR>problematic if, for some reason, the
Gateway system you originally<BR>registered on is removed from
service.<BR><BR>So, hopefully, to put an answer in context of your
question... During an<BR>emergency:<BR>You don't need to be registered to
use a local D-STAR repeater to talk<BR>with local stations; however if you
need access to the rest of the<BR>national / international D-STAR network,
or its features (Reflectors,<BR>etc), you will need to be registered on a G2
Gateway somewhere.<BR><BR>An example of this could be where the portable
D-STAR repeater, VK3RWW<BR>B, is deployed to provide temporary coverage to
an affected area. The<BR>portable repeater can be connected, through
its G2 Gateway computer, to<BR>the rest of the D-STAR network via either an
existing broadband internet<BR>connection, or via its internal 3G wireless
modem (provided it is<BR>available). Once the internet connection has
been established the G2<BR>Gateway computer will propagate its details to
the rest of the G2<BR>network and (hopefully) within approx 2 - 4 hours it
will know how to<BR>route to the rest of the D-STAR network and the rest of
the D-STAR<BR>network will know how to route calls to VK3RWW B. This
has been shown<BR>to be quite successful at a number of Hamfests / Field
days, etc over<BR>the last 12 months, but to the best of my knowledge,
hasn't yet been<BR>used during any emergency response. In this
instance new registrations<BR>could be processed locally, to provide
immediate temporary access to the<BR>rest of the network.<BR><BR>I hope this
answers your question.<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR><BR>Davidt, VK3UR<BR><BR>>
