Re: TYT MD-2017 Alpha 2.2

Well I do get the above behavior, and it's weird. Also changed to voltage display and I can see it drop, but if I measure with a multimeter it stays the same. Did further tests with a 7.6V external power supply strapped to the battery terminals (actual battery removed) and I get the following consu...

Re: TYT MD-2017 Alpha 2.2

has anyone noticed high power consumption with the opengd77 firmware? at 50mW TX power a 10seconds QSO draws 4% of the battery, that is not good. GPS is enabled, but disabling it does not make any significant difference. LOL. So you are saying your battery will sustain transmission for 100/4 * 10 s...

Re: Power Calibration

Taking advantage of this thread regarding power calibration. Is there any way to calibrate the power values of 1W, 750mW, 500mW... on the TYT MD-9600? No. The official calibration data table, which we also use, only contains 4 values per frequency band. 5W, 10W, 25W and 40W. Values below 5W are ext...

Re: New CPS 2024 01 22

You could use: [0-9A-Za-z. ] Which is 64 characters. OK. So we can only use period mark (.) FYI. Only 64 characters in total are allowed because the text needs to be compressed to fit in radios and the compression method is the same as used by some commercial radios where 4 bytes are compressed int...

Re: CPS R2024.03.09.01 Radio Shut Down?

Strange, can you power off a 390 via the green button? I have always used the volume/on-off switch and press sk1 + PTT when powering on radio in DFU mode. Ah. I was confused, I thought this problem was on the MD9600 but I see now its the 390 The ability to reboot back into the firmware is not suppo...
