The codebase I am now using is not the same as the codebase in the repo, it is copyright me and some other developers and not publicly available.
Roger, Am I among the "some other developers" or did you replace every line of code I wrote before ever releasing a "not publicly available" firmware?

Re: Complete Corresponding Source Code (GPLv2 Section 3)

these are cases where I feel that it is best to let sleeping dogs lie. I agreed with that in this case too, but a few thoughts changed my mind: Probably the most important one is that what I loved about OpenGD77 is that I could modify it myself - and I did. I made a few minor UI changes and contrib...

Complete Corresponding Source Code (GPLv2 Section 3)

Per Section 3 of the licence I am requesting the complete corresponding source code for every build of the firmware published to https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/OpenGD77/releases as of this day, for which complete corresponding source code was not previously provided. There is abundant eviden...

Re: On "Profiteering" and Free Software

To the OP on this thread, I don't think Roger was saying that he was going to rescind the code that was released under GPL (which you implied). I didn't mean to imply that. Read on for a somewhat clearer ideas. I was not suggesting that existing versions would or could be removed. I could tell that...

On "Profiteering" and Free Software

See the announcement post for context. We may be overreacting. There are many operators who might rather pay to have someone else install a firmware than install one themselves, and 20 GBP (about 26 USD / 36 AUD) doesn't sound like an entirely unreasonable amount to charge for that service. It's abo...

Re: Changing Talkgroups

That depends on the network, and on how the repeater is configured, and not on the radio features.

Re: Ability to open the squelch of CTCSS or DCS is enabled??

The UI is already probably one of the most complex of any HT, mainly because of the huge range of functionality available - probably far more than any similar commercial HT, so squeezing in extra functionality onto any of the buttons is going to be tricky. A major difference between OpenGD77 and co...

Re: Ability to open the squelch of CTCSS or DCS is enabled??

We may be able to use the Blue button (aka SK2) for this. It has another function if pressed when there is an incoming DMR signal on a different TG to the one the radio is already set to. So there may be some conflict with that. But perhaps we can change the function that sets the Tx TG to the curr...

Re: DCS audio cuts out

Although the AT1846S can be configured to use one of its GPIO connections as a squelch indication pin, I know that none of the GPIO pins on the AT1846S are connected to the mircocontroller in the GD77 (or DM-1801 or RD-5R). So the AT1846S would still need to be polled even if some sort of internal ...

Re: DCS audio cuts out

any setup will do as long you use opengd77 radios, set rx and tx any ctcss and very important you mouth need to touch the radio so you can do "overmodulation" and say aaaa or something very loud. i have described about this setup many times. i just feal no one is listening me how to reproduce this....
