Step 2 — Get your DMR ID  [↑ Contents]

What a DMR ID is. A DMR ID is a unique number (usually 7 digits) tied to you and your callsign. Every DMR network uses it to know who's talking. You only need one, it's free, and the same ID works everywhere — BrandMeister, TGIF, and the rest.

How to get one:

1. Go to radioid.net, create an account, and verify it through the email they send.
2. Start the DMR ID registration and enter your callsign, license class, and location.
3. Upload your Official Copy PDF from Step 1 as your proof of license.
4. Submit it. A volunteer reviews each request by hand.

The wait. Approval usually takes 24–72 hours. You'll get an email when it's done, and your new ID will show under “My IDs” in your account. Keep that number handy — you'll use it in the next two steps.
