Have just got my second "mobile" #PiStar hotspot set up for #DMRGateway with #DMR2YSF and 2 DMR networks (Brandmeister, TGIF).
This will travel with me when I'm out and about working, using a 4G MiFi router.
My home Hotspot now also runs #DMRGateway and #DMR2YSF and has 3 DMR networks (Brandmeister, TGIF and Phoenix).
Should I make it easy on myself and keep them on the same 70cm frequency, or make the
codeplug difficult by having everything duplicated for two different frequencies?
Now that I've got my #PiStar hotspot's #DMRGateway config working with #DMR2YSF I guess I should add a new zone to my Anytone 678 containing all the interesting YSF reflectors I might want to dial into, in addition to #Fedihams?
I know nothing at all about YSF or fusion and how the #DMR2YSF functionality works, so it'll be (yet another) steep learning curve!
The #HamRadio hobby is a never ending box of delights, even after 40 years!

@m7tlb Hi Dave. I already had #DMRGateway working with 3 DMR networks - Brandmeister, Phoenix and TGIF... I've dropped Phoenix (for now) but added #DMR2YSF and can connect to different YSF reflectors.
I had a QSO with @W8HF on Fedihams, via YSF at my end and it worked ok. I also dialled up the YSF reflector for Hubnet, then back to Fedihams, and it all seemed to go smoothly.
Time for bed now, though 🥱
@gm4slv
Exactly this. Part of the reason I wanted to get #DMRGateway working on my #PiStar was to be able to use the #DMR2YSF gateway, and also have the option of including #FreeStar (and potentially others) as well.
I need to give #FediHams a try actually, so I've added TG 7073737 into my radio in preparation.

@m7tlb In for a penny....
I had to add the BM talkgroup to my radio, so might as well add #DMR2YSF to my #PiStar #DMRGateway config and then add a TG7073737 to the radio too.
I think it's working, I see my call on the YSFReflector dashboard!
Perhaps tomorrow I might have a go at finding someone to talk to!?
Spent this evening factory resetting my #PiStar as #DMRGateway just wasn't maintaining a connection for more than 3 minutes. It's all ginger peachy now though, thankfully.
I've now decided that I prefer #YSF over #DMR, which is ironic considering I don't possess a YSF rig, only DMR. Still, thanks to DMRGateway and #DMR2YSF, I now have a choice.
I love this hobby!
