Normally, the convention is you register with the gateway that's closest to you. If you have one in your local area, register there, otherwise you could pick one in an area you're likely to frequent. Remember to register at only ONE gateway. Also, once your registration is approved, you have to create a "terminal" for your D-STAR radio, so it can access the network. There is documentation out there, someone will be able to supply the link. 73 de VK3JED / VK3IRL http://vkradio.com
