User Guide
The USA Master servers 3101. 3102. 3103 and 3108 will no longer support the DV4Mini as of January 2108
Zello - TeamSpeak - Discord are not to be cross-linked to BrandMeister in any way.
Zello is an application that many people use on their phone. Zello is a commercial application that allows people all over the world to communicate using VOIP (Voice Over IP). Zello is a commercial venture and that does not meet the needs or requirements of an amateur radio station. The FCC requires an amateur radio station to have a control operator that is always monitoring the communication traffic of the licensee's radio station. The FCC also requires us to Identify every 10 minutes and to announce any 3rd party traffic that emits from our control station. When a user connects to a Zello user cross-linked system and is not an amateur radio operator, they are in violation of the FCC rules by operating on an amateur radio frequency without a license and you, the control operator is breaking FCC rules by allowing the 3rd party unlicensed traffic to use your station. It is no different than a member of the public buying a ham radio and talking to his buddy thinking that they are talking on a fancy CB radio station. The FCC is not amused by the lack of knowledge of the FCC's rules and regulations and they are not afraid to fine anyone that breaks their rules.
== All of the US Master server owners decided among themselves that they do not want any part in facilitating other amateur radio operators to knowingly or unknowingly break the rules that the FCC have made for us to abide by, these are the same rules that you sign to agree to after you successfully pass an amateur radio examination. ==

The User Guide is available for download and has the information included below and much more.

Reflectors
Reflectors are disabled on all the USA Masters. The associated talk groups for reflectors should be used instead of reflectors. These also means the DV4Mini and extended routing will no longer function. Other masters such as 3021 still accept these connections.
Cross Links
There are to be NO cross-links of any type on any State-Wide talk groups, Tacs 310-312, or USA Nationwide 3100. It seems people like to experiment and this is NOT the place to do it. If you need to test, please use your personal DMR ID as a 7 digit group call (talk group). We are a guest to those talk groups.
TAC Channels
TAC 310 - 312 are bridged between different networks through DMRX so that communications between different networks are possible. Please allow time between each transmission to allow others to also use the talk groups. When a users on a cbridge activates a talkgroup, they will not hear anything until the next transmission starts. We are a guest on these talk groups. TAC 310 - 312 should NOT be used as a primary talk groups by anyone! If you wish to have longer conversations please use TAC 313-319.
Talk Groups
State talk groups should be used as call channels or short conversations of 15 minutes or less. Some states have chat or tac talk groups of their own that you may used for longer discussions. Many repeaters carry their local statewide talk groups as static talk groups. Please be courteous and remember how many repeaters you may be keying up when using a statewide talk group. If you are using another statewide talk group and are not in communications with someone else in that state, please be courteous and move to a different talk group.
