Verify Connection and Sysop Permissions

1. Verify connection by going to the BrandMeister website at http://brandmeister.network and click on repeaters and search for your repeater by the 6-digit Radio ID or by the Callsign of the Repeater.

2. Once all steps are satisfied above you can request for sysop rights to be assigned in the BrandMeister Sysop Dashboard by submitting a ticket by visiting http://support.brandmeister.network (if you click the link it will take you to the form to fill out) and provide your 6-Digit Repeater ID, the master server you are connected to and your 7-digit ID and Call Sign. Please be the owner or trustee of the assigned Repeater ID/Call Sign when sending the request and of course have a BrandMeister Account (if you don't have an account please see Register for an account). We will verify the information in the FCC Database and will only provide sysop rights to the repeater owner/trustee. Once the owner/trustee is assigned they may in turn assign other sysops to the repeater as they desire.

3. Once you have been provided Sysop Rights to the repeater you may reference the Sysop Dashboard guide for features and other information.
