//Hello All,//
So sad to see HHL shut down. I had a lot of fun calling around the world.
Back to Echolink or is there another service using VoIP to connect my Cisco phone?

You can use either HamsOverIP (hamsoverip.com) or AmateurWire (amateurwire.org).

You submit the original copy of your ham radio license, plus
your name, callsign, email, phone number, and DMR ID if you
have one.

For those who don't have a "hard phone", you can use the
GroundWire app to set up a SIP account for either or both
on your iOS on Android phone. HamsOverIP users can contact
AmateurWire users, and vice versa. The nice thing is that
you don't have to give your landline or cellphone number
out over the air.

I'm on both, but I haven't used either one all that much.

Also, there is a $10 initial purchase fee for the Groundwire
app.

//Hello Daryl,//

Thanks for the info. It didn't take long, less than 2 days, to get my HoIP and DMR number. Now have to figure out how to program my Cisco Spa 525G sidecar
to make it work. I guess Youtube is going to be my friend. I am not a fan of "Chat" channels such as Discord.
Lost my custom Wallpaper because I had to do a factory reset and cant remember how I got it uploaded to the phone. Should have written it down somewhere.

Do you know if it is possible to have both services, HoIP and Amateurwire, on one phone? Lets say Ext1 is Hoip and Ext2 for Amaterwire.
Thanks again for the links and have a great day.

//Hello Rug,//
Thanks for the info. I got the HoIP set up and running. Can Amateur Wire be used at the same time? Maybe as Extension 4?
