Re: Startup Screen DM-5R

Thank you for the warning not to use my phone number as text. That's true, the two lines are used as talker alias. Hence, you can create a boot image, and write the text down it, using your preferred drawing software. I see the choice of Picture or Text, but how do I enter the picture. Do I create ...

Re: Startup Screen DM-5R

I like to put my phone number into the startup screen, in case my HT is lost or stolen. Since installation of the Open Firmware, there is no longer a startup screen. I skimmed the manual but could not find a discussion of this issue. In CPS you have "Boot Item" where you have two lines that is disp...

Re: TYT MD-UV380 DMR Rx Missing

It's sporadic for me too. Regularity is difficult to determine. Sometimes there is one Rx per hour, but sometimes it can lose two more at once. I'm using eco level 0, but every level has the same missing Rx. The radio can also sometimes decode noise as in the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1...

Re: TYT MD-UV380 DMR Rx Missing

What Eco Level do you use ?

You could try with Eco Level=0 or lower the value to see if that makes any difference.

Re: Does the RD-5R Open firmware put in transmission limits?

I recently purchased the DM5R from AliExpress and successfully installed my RD5R codeplug and it works successfully on analog and DMR. I thought I also used it to have a chat through a GMRS repeater, as my RD-5R successfully works on GMRS and MURS in analog. Now I have installed the OpenRD5R firmwa...

Re: USB charger base

Hi, Before I saw this mail-thread I made a similar rebuild using a USB C Power Decoy Module (PDC004-PD 12V) together with TP5100 configured for 8.4 V. Left the 12V jack for compatibility and protected both power sources by serial diodes (1N4002). Note that this setup is not as generic as the one pr...

Re: TYT MD-UV380 / RT-3S Installation information

And it's normal that the transceiver reboots at the end of the upload. so now I see the callsigns. this is weird. downloadin...
