Aloha! Welcome to the KH7MS website.

If you would like to help support the KH7MS

network please consider donating!

I maintain several DMR repeaters around the Big Island and most of the equipment was donated or purchased by me or others in the group. Any help or donations would be greatly appreciated.

 KH7MS - ACTIVE PROJECTS:

My name is Blake Stene, KH7MS I'm an Amateur Radio operator and system administrator for the KH7MS network. I have a vision to build out an Island wide DMR (digital mobile radio) repeater network. This network of DMR repeaters would help strengthen communications in rural communities here on the Big Island. Ham Radio operators provide a valuable link before during and after emergencies like hurricanes, fires, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions and more. To better serve our community I need money to maintain and expand our current DMR system. I currently maintain 10 DMR repeaters on the Big Island and I'm hoping to increase the number of repeaters on the Big Island with your support.

  Hawaii DMR net:

The first Hawaii DMR net was held on July 15, 2017 on the Hawaii 1 DMR talkgroup 3115. The net was later moved to the Hawaii TAC 1 talkgroup 311551 after BrandMeister put a 10 min restriction on all statewide talkgroups. The net started off being a small group of Hawaii Ham Radio operators, but it has grown over the years to 15 - 20 check-ins every Saturday night at 7PM HST on the Hawaii TAC 1 talkgroup 311551. I would like to thank everyone that supported this net over the past 7 years and I'm looking forward to many more years to come.

  The Hawaii DMR BrandMeister discord link is listed below:

I encourage everyone to join the Hawaii DMR discord group. This is were you can get the most up to date information.

https://discord.gg/Mb2J77psCC

I just wanted to remind everyone that we have a DMR net every Saturday at 7:00PM HST or 19:00W. The net will be on the Hawaii TAC 1 talkgroup 311551. All licensed amateurs radio operators are invited to check in and participate. I encourage all stations to check in and participate with comments on the topic of interest. This net provides a great opportunity to share questions regarding DMR and other Amateur radio topics. If for some reason we have problems or we can't use Hawaii TAC 1 talkgroup 311551 please switch to the tech net talkgroup 310745 so we can continue on with the net.

Topic of interest: Open topic unless specified.

 Ocean view DMR Local TG 9 TS 2 Net "Local TG 9 Net"

444.950 CC 1 Ocean view DMR repeater

NCS: Blake, KH7MS

When: Starting on April 4th I'll be starting a local DMR net in Ocean view. This net will be held every first Friday of the month at 7:30PM or 19:30W to test DMR radios and to get people confortable switching to talkgroup TG 9 TS 2 on the 444.950 CC 1 Ocean view repeater. This is the talkgroup you should switch to if we have a emergency, special event or internet outage. This talkgroup TG 9 TS 2 will stay local and not go out over the BrandMeister DMR network. So you'll need to use the Ocean view 444.950 CC1 DMR repeater and not a hotspot to check in to this local net.

 Hawaii County DMR Siren Net TG 31153

 NCS: Blake Stene, KH7MS

 When: Every first working day of the month starting at 11:30AM HST I'll be taking check-ins on the Hawaii County TG 31153 at 11:30AM. I'll do a roll call at 11:46AM and take reports followed by any additional check-ins. When you check-in please check-in with your callsign, name & location and if you heard the siren or not. All reports need to be in by 12 noon.
