Sorry for never replying.
I helped another ham get his Bridgecom setup configured and working over the weekend, which got me inspired to get my DMR going again. I had already changed my DMR ID from a 1xxxxx number to a 3xxxxxx number in Feb, but hadn't updated my OpenSpot or radios. Tried but then found out that Brandmeister purged my acct! I had to re-register, and confirm my license with RadioID.
Right now Brandmeister is happy, my OpenSpot 1 is happy, just need to update my radios now. Dave AI6VX

Dave - did you test it first, and if so, were you having the same issue I described?

I've been chasing my tail for a couple of days trying to figure out why I can key up DMR repeaters but my QSO is not broadcast to other repeaters; it only stays local. It appears that Brandmeister is no longer routing QSO's from 7-digital personal radio ID's starting with a "1" (and eventually 6-digit repeater Radios ID's starting with a "1", so be ware if you run a repeater)! They say it'll work until 1/1/26, but mine was NOT and changing my RadioID solved the problem.
Note that this requires reprogramming of all your radios (and repeaters).
Read following if you have a RadioID that starts with a "1" (note the Jan 28th update near bottom):
