Like N4TRQ I have recently purchased a DV-Dongle, have it working to the point where I can monitor at gateways, but the PTT button is grayed out. I am assuming this is because I am not registered in the network (although I have found nothing about it in the instructions). Because I am nowhere near any D-Star enabled gateway or repeater I too did not think it mattered where I registered or that it mattered which gateway I may have chosen to register with. I initially registered with a far flung gateway that offered a registration page after googling "D-Star registration", only to discover that was the incorrect thing to do. So, I found and registered with yet another gateway that I assumed was closest to me only to discover that registering at more than one gateway is a no-no....Days have past since I have first installed this thing and despite completing at least two registration requests nothing has happened?? What in the world does one have to do to get properly registered in D-Star if you don't have someone locally to be your administrator? I notice a lot of the registration links are either missing or don't work?
Is there another way to get registered? Thanks
Update 7/23 Finally registered after about 5 days. I would suggest anyone that purchased DVD at HRO and having troubles with registration contact Mark at Atlanta HRO. Very helpful.
