How it Works

Callwatch:  The latest version of c-Bridge (our networking) software has changed the name of NetWatch to CallWatch.  c-Bridges are computers configured as talkgroup servers and they manage everything that cross into, through and out of, the PNWDigital network.

We maintain 3 primary c-Bridges and they are capable of redundant talkgroup failover service if any one c-Bridge were to fail.  Outside talkgroups come from 3 primary sources; Brandmeister, DMR-MARC and other c-Bridges.  All 3 c-Bridges have incoming talkgroups so that the load is more balanced and any potential failures can be minimized.

By selective use of Callwatch, you may search for a single talkgroup, repeater, MMDVM server, a user by call sign or name, a city, town or state, a c-Bridge, etc.  Whatever you wish filter that can appear in Callwatch, is filterable or searchable.

CallWatch typically holds 1,500 call records.  Much of the traffic in our call history is from talkgroups not native to PNWDigital.  There are 2 available filters, Accept text and Reject text  that may be used to reduce the call history.  It can be managed to favor PNWDigital, affiliated networks or conversely to other networks that may be of interest.  Both filters may be used simultaneously as well as with multiple text entries via piping.

It is recommended that members use the links below rather than the stock links in the above table, as your default Callwatch pages to limit the extraneous call entries.
