Re: Menu(s) order

Perhaps the menus can be reordered by the user to the order they prefer. Menu > Edit menu order Then the user does a two-key up/down to move the menu item up or down. Same for Channel details. Some users focus more on Analog and then it makes sense to have Rx frequencies quicker to access. Just a fe...

Preferred way to setup Contacts and Channels

What is the purpose of Contact - Repeater Slot Override? I assume that the preferred way to setup a repeater is: 1) Create a channel for TS 1 and TS2 (i.e. 2 Channel entries) 2) Create a TG List for the channels hosted on TS 1 and TS2 (i.e 2 TG Lists) 3) Create a Contact for each Talk Group and leav...

Re: Ranaming of the Rx Group to 'TRx Group' or perhaps TG List

As an alternate, how about 'Subscriptions'. 'Cause that's what they are, the channels one is currently subscribed to listen to.
Although, for talking, I guess them Talk Groups is more accurate.
... Just thinking out loud :)

Re: [Proposal] RX Frequency and Offset in Channel Mode

+1 for the general idea of showing the RX and offset. Why? When auditing the codeplug, to make sure everything is correct, it currently requires the menu functions to show the Rx and Tx for a channel. A suggestion, perhaps if the user did a [some function key] + ['?' key] then the Frequency could sh...

Re: [Proposal] 80 Channels per zone

Scan lists are 64 lists * 32 channels. Why not just make it the same,and add them as extra zones? Say I'd like to say, maybe 25 lists of 80 channels. Consider them all as Zones, for total ~93 zones roughly and 80 channels each. Then ... maybe in the Channel, one zone is the 'Zone' and another Zone c...

Re: Weatherproofing for cold and humid ...

Good to know. I almost took mine our snowshoeing today but decided against it. My Anytone seems to work well in cold when skiing and snowshoeing. Tonight, in the car (warm enough), it also locked up with the keyboard input. I'm thinking now that it is actually a loose connection problem and that sk...
