No linking, unlinking or asking for a TG to be added to the c bridge.īrandmeister offers users the ability to communicate worldwide with just the changing of the channel on the user's radio. Simply program the TG you want and key the mic. Administrator Advantages Reduced politics involved in the distribution of talkgroups Simplification in managing our system Support for Homebrew repeaters Better dashboard available to club users The Hose is available to club users Developed "By Hams, For Hams" so we should see more features to our liking and is more in the spirit of Amateur Radio.ģ Challenges with the C Bridge network Currently the management of TGs in our c bridge is a myriad of rules and hold off times. Every repeater we add to the bridge exponentially adds to the number of rules we need to create in order to make the systems work. The current c bridge software was never intended to do what we are doing with it. It was meant for much smaller applications. The network of c bridges is a myriad of cross connections that introduces latency, dropouts and potential collisions between users. Risks with BrandMeister BrandMeister software is immature and does not have a long history of stable operation under load There is no guarantee the volunteer developers will continue to develop and support the software Management of the server and network are outside the control of PAPA System administrators Static and Dynamic Talkgroups The BrandMeister network manages talkgroups differently that the C Bridge.
On the C Bridge network each repeater is configured with a set of talkgroups. There are always on and user activated (or push to talk) groups. These are configured at the C Bridge and cannot be modified by users from their radios.
On the BrandMeister network static talkgroups are configured by repeater operators. These talkgroups are similar to always on talkgroups.
They will always transmit when there is traffic. These are the only talkgroups that must be configured by repeater operators. When a user keys up on a dynamic talkgroup the BrandMeister system creates a subscription for that talkgroup on that repeater.
