OK, I was quoting from memory!

I will need to update the User Guide, but documentation keeps getting pushed to the bottom of the ToDo list

Your priorities are valid! Amazing you guys pulled this off with the new CPU.

Thought I tried that last night. Actual mapping is up arrow A, down arrow C up SK1 B and down SK1 D.

I tried to send a B dtmf tone and it looks like there's no key for that digit. Probably due to 2 arrow keys not 4 on the RT-3s. Am I missing something? Possibly I can program a string with the CPS. *B1 are the characters I need to send to an Allstar node to shut it down, which I can't do with the RT...

I just received a UV380 from here : https://www.ebay.com/itm/264446265553 it's the GPS version, and works perfect;y with OpendGD77. S/N: 2205L01293 It might be old stock since it came from NY. 73's Luca I took a chance and ordered one and received it today Feb 17 which worked as well after loading ...

The user guide shows to activate a satellite pass alarm press the SK2 + Green key on any pass screen. Is this implemented on the RT-3S Dec 15 firmware? If so, what is the SK2 equivalent button. Button below the PTT?
Tnx, WA2N

Thanks. I bit the bullet and updated all the GD-77's to latest alpha and loaded the latest CPS first. Loading the firmware on the RT-3S was easy and the codeplug slid right in. Also was able to load the entire callsign database! Thanks guys, nice work.

I have several GD-77's all programmed with the 2-28-2022 stable release and the CPS that was available at that time. Can the latest CPS that supports the Retivis RT3S be used with the GD-77's? I have a RT3S coming and don't want to change the GD-77's as they're working well. Tnx, Wayne WA2N

Just got a notification that there are TYT-MD-760's available on Ebay for $140 now shipped from China: https://www.ebay.com/itm/125381114884?h ... Sw5bNissSH

I managed to get a TYT-MD760 from a vendor on AliExpress and it works just fine with Opengd77, thanks. I went through two orders, each vendor messaged me that the factory was out of parts for that model and had no production date set. They offered me a "chinese" version that they did have in stock w...

I saw a post here that the TYY MD-760 is the same as the GD77 and those do appear for sale on AliExpress for $86. Something like 1400 were available recently. So is this radio truly a clone that will work with opengd77 firmware?
