I need help to get a dmr id!
« on: January 25, 2022, 01:22:23 PM »

Hey guys.. I want to get into dmr... But... I have tried numeros times to acquire a dmr id but cant get an uncorrupted copy of my license to upload.

Im 80 yo and dont have a computer so im trying on my android phone to get my license copy. I get to the end and every time the download is a bad file!!

Any chance someone familiar with the process could get a copy of my license for me???

I can give you all my info so you could log in and complete the process for me??

There used to be a file size limit, the chances are that your phone takes an image that is too big. Maybe you can re-size the image in the phone itself?

I thought that radioid.net required a .pdf to be uploaded?

Should be as easy as downloading a .pdf from the fcc and then uploading it to radioid.net.


Dave, what type of file are you trying to upload?

It’s a long time since I registered, but I remember a local ham struggling with registering his call. The problem was that he exceeded the file size.
As to the type of file, I can’t remember that far back.

They have made it hard to get a DMR ID now.
When I got mine I just ask!
Now my buddy is facing the same issue and he
is ready to say "the hell with it"  Can't say I blame
him!! He is using one of my ID's right now.
And no--- He does not have a computer, he also
is using a phone. What is this -- LOTW ??

Go to the FCC website. Download a copy of your license in pdf format. Send that file.

If you cannot do it that way then take your license, have someone scan it and send it as a pdf to your phone and send that. Usually a librarian at a public library can help with this, they have computers there too... and are used to helping older folks deal with the new technology.

Good Luck!

I don't know why the original plan to take a picture of the license and sending it doesn't work.
