Taking a step back
I have decided to take a small step back from public-facing Resonite online spaces. This decision was taken as nowadays, while there are some wonderful things and (lots of) constructive feedback, the load of bad-faith remarks about the Resonite Team being “lazy” or “not transparent”, or whatever ill you may think of is honestly wearing…

Bonus: the events of DMR
Since I haven”t seen a list around of DMR-related events, here are the ones I could find. All those events happen on BrandMeister, I”ve never used any other DMR networks. World-Wide Check-In Happens every Saturday at 16:00 UTC in talkgroup 91 (World-Wide). The world will be called region by region, and all you have to…

DMR Hotspot bonus
While talking in the FinDMR chat, someone mentioned there is an easier way to manage talkgroups from the radio itself, instead of continuously swapping TGs in the dashboard. Turns out you can leave everything blank in the BrandMeister hotspot settings and instead dial directly the group which will add it as “Auto Static”. When you’re…

Part two: the hotspot saga
So, I”ve talked about my radio, what I do on DMR, what”s missing now? I know, the hotspot! Before beginning, thanks to the peeps at FinDMR for answering my (probably stupid) questions.

Finally configuring my radio properly

If you don’t know what’s going on, allow me to present our two automated friends: Both bots are implemented using GitHub Actions and run for basically free since the…

Just blog
I made my first public website back in 2012. It was hosted on some free hosting provider that was injecting ads into it (and since then closed down). The website itself was a weird amalgamation of hotlinked images I found funny, random flash games and whatever text I could write at that time. Of course,…

DMR Radio is pretty fun
Since around September last year, I started using DMR radio. I was just about to come back from Eurofurence when I saw a message in my local radio club’s chat (shoutouts to OH2K) from someone selling a bunch of Anytone AT-D168UV. Before that, I was told that DMR had a pretty large community in Finland,…

Software I’m using in 2026
Time for the easy blog post that I make every year.The software I use hasn’t changed much since last year, so allow me to be lazy and list it all. Starting with the OS, you might already know that Fedora is my go-to Linux distribution nowadays. It’s easy to install and update, and now ships…
