Tagged cBridge, DMR, K4USD, N0GSG, NX4DN, TYT MD-380 | Digital Modes “bug” update K4USD cBridge Netwatch Dashboard Control Center K4USD Network – Allows you to watch your RSSI and Loss Rate, good for testing range of the repeater and your portable/mobile radio. Also a list of talkgroups to aid in programming K4USD DMR cBridge – the Tallahassee NX4DN DMR repeater is connect though this cBridge. Tom Wheeler, N0GSG, ContactManager v 1.20 (bulk import tool) Register for DMR ID This link will take you directly to the user registration side Drop me an email to if you would like to see this I can make a short video of the two ways to convert the data for import if there is any interest. You can moved the columns around to be in the ID, CALL/Name, Group, Alert format then save the file as a comma separated file (.csv). These are alittle more complete but the column data is positioned incorrectly. You can also manipulate the files in the CS750 folder which are Excel XLSX file. This can be accomplished by opening the file with Excel and creating two new columns for that data. In addition to the provided column data called ID, Callsign & Name, you also need a column for Group Call (or private call) and Alert tone. However, they are missing two columns that prevent you from importing. The instructions will tell you that the files that you need are in the CS700 folder which are. If you wish to bulk import to your MD-380 using a program like the one N0GSG, Tom Wheeler, provides, the daily zip file contains two folders called CS700 & CS750 for the Connect Systems portable radios. Here is a direct link for the daily contact zip file. There is a daily download available from the site that contains all the ID’s on a daily basis. There is another alternative to obtaining user ID’s by the FoxHollow folks. The contact section also contains (probably at the top) the talkgroup information of the repeater or regional network that you want to connect/talk to. You would then enter this information in the Digital Contacts section (think of it as an Address Book) of the CPS MD_380 Program. There is a database query on the dmr-marc site where you retrieve someones ID by either name or callsign. Unlike D-Star which shows you the user callsign when receiving a transmission, DMR only shows you the 7 digit “subscriber ID or call ID” number which is supplied by the folks when you sign up for an ID. After playing around with the MD-380 program and entering frequencies, I decided to investigate the Contacts section of the program. ![]()
