Re: Tier2 vs Tier1 firmware

I tried playing with the calibration setting along with low power settings on my hotspots that support it, and I still had the audio defect.

Re: reception problem

I also suffer from this bug with all the Tier II firmware I've tried and makes me go back to the Tier I firmware. I'll post my calibration screens for reference.

I love the ham radio tailored direction Roger is going with the firmware, and I appreciate all the time Kai and Roger have put into this effort along with all the oth...
