Re: New Beta 2023 12 08

I'm not 100% sure. When I downloaded the beta, it saved as "OpenDM1801.zip," so I figured it was a version number. I just re-downloaded it, and it was "OpenDM1701.zip" again, and this time it flashed fine.

Makes a ton of sense. I wasn't saying those features should be added, just why I have so far found dual watch useful and not replaced by the zone scan feature.

Re: Dual watch

I'm likely missing something but I think the dual watch feature gives you a bit more options from the device itself without cluttering up the code plug. 1. I don't think you can create a new zone to scan from the device . (Is it actually possible?) So, one would need to use an existing zone and enab...

Re: Code plug for San Francisco area

You posted this a while ago, wondering if you ended-up making one that you would be willing to share?

Greeting from W6DUX in CA; Q:Voice Alert?

Good day all, First let me thank you all for this amazing firmware! My friend gave me a DM-1701, and I was trying to just listen to the happenings on my local repeater but I wasn't able to figure out all the TalkGroups since it didn't seem to support a promiscuous mode. I just installed OpenGD77 and...
