M17

M17 reflectors and modules, free.

Pick an M17 reflector and a module letter, and talk, with no password to set up.

What M17 reflectors are

M17 reflectors are internet servers that link M17 stations. Each one is split into modules named by letters, each a conversation of its own.

The app connects with the callsign on your account. Moving to another module is one tap in the module list.

New to Unified Radios? Create a free account and pair the app first. Sign up with your callsign and we bring in your DMR ID, which every digital mode uses. You can also start without a callsign and add both later.

  1. Find a reflector

    Open the network list, choose M17 and search by name or place.

  2. Choose a letter

    Pick the module you want to join; the app tells you if a reflector turns it down.

  3. Key up

    Press Push to Talk.

M17 voice and the reflector list are free. A subscription adds memories, so a favorite reflector and module are one tap away. Compare plans.

Open from end to end

M17's specification is public, and it names Codec 2, an open codec, as its voice codec.
