Re: struggling!

Thanks for the tips. Doing ## 9990 got Parrot working. I also discovered the user guide on github which I had somehow missed so that's helping too. And I successfully used hotspot mode with pistar so things are looking up!

A TG List (Brandmeister) with each contact above added Whenever I attempt to use parrot, the target on pi-star remains at 3100. I'd appr...

Re: OpenGD77 vs MMDVM hat

I'm looking forward to trying hotspot mode out. I'm currently running a Pi/Pi-Star with a single antenna mmdvm hat which talks to an Anytone D878UV. I'm a rank dmr noob, so I don't understand what advantages a dual-antenna setup has to offer. I've ordered an additional Pi 3B for testing with OpenGD7...

OpenGD77 vs MMDVM hat

Is the GD77 is a better match with the Pi for a hotspot than a hat? I'm looking to set up a pi-star for my wife's sewing room as soon as she has her ticket (March).

Import codeplug

I currently run an AT D878UV and export my codeplugs to DMR Contact Manager for massaging. Using the contact manager software I'm able to export contacts/channels to csv files. They won't import into the OpenGD77 CPS due to a data format error. Is there a way around this or will I have to re-enter m...
