Uh Oh, I've been found :-).
The only problem with the information is it doesn't tell when I was last on.

See, I found Fran! (GRIN. I chose someone at random from this thread to show that you can find anyone on any system.) Remember I'm logged into W0CDS as my regular user, not the admin user.. Example: W1FJM AA1HD C AA1HD 10.205.233.248 W1FJM D AA1HD A AA1HD 10.205.233.250 W1FJM H AA1HD A AA1HD 10.205.233.251 W1FJM M AA1HD B AA1HD 10.205.233.249 Now not only do I know Fran's a D-STAR user, but that he's using "letter" routing (or at least that he's registered to do so) and likely has more than one rig. maybe I'd call "W1FJM" or maybe I'd try "W1FJM H" or "W1FJM M" if I wanted to see if he was home or mobile. the information on the Gateway web interface is far more useful than the DStarUsers.org info.

This will tell you if someone's callsign is registered on D-STAR, on any Gateway. You do have to remove the local repeater callsign (just highlight and hit delete) from the ZONERPT_CS file (Zone Repeater Callsign), or it'll only find local users on your Gateway. It was built that way so you could find their IP addresses for their ID-1 setup, if you were attempting to do long-haul data, originally. Every registered callsign also has a network-wide IP address available. if it really worked that way. it kinda doesn't, but that's the design philosophy behind the web pages, you can tell by looking at them.

I was wondering if there is a way to see if a fellow ham is on dstar? For instance we can look up a call sign or name in the QRZ database or do a call sign search in Echolink, is there a was to that with DSTAR?
