Re: Some hotspot woes... Bad intelligibility

Could there be an issue in MMDVM or Pi-Star? Any news from other users of this mode? I mean, all was fine until Wednesday or so. JSWT updated often, but I also tried a Pistar image with identical results. Well, there is a small change... Pistar gives me a BER of between 8-12%. I guess this is quite ...

Re: Some hotspot woes... Bad intelligibility

OK, I tried again in DMR Direct mode from one radio to another. The RT84 is clearly putting out RF but no audio when using the built-in microphone. Strange enough, when I connect an external headset to it, it transmits fine and with appropriate quality I reflashed OpenGD77 (hoping that this might fi...

How's your power setting set on your two transceivers ?
1W. Next try, swap out the radios. I'll report what happens.

Re: Some hotspot woes... Bad intelligibility

Reporting back: Radio reset was unsuccessful in terms of audio quality. Could it be that WSPD Pi-Star fork is causing trouble? Has anyone experienced this?

Re: Some hotspot woes... Bad intelligibility

By the way, it sounds crap with the original antenna as well. I'm gonna reset the radio to default, maybe I have fat-fingered something...

Re: Some hotspot woes... Bad intelligibility

Double check that TXOffset and RXOffset are set to 0 in you MMDVMHost ini file (/etc/mmdvhost on your pistar, or using the expert editor in the web interface). Yep, Offset is 0. That's not it, it seems. Frequencies on the hotspot walkie and on the one I use to talk are also OK. It's also not the ta...

Some hotspot woes... Bad intelligibility

Hello, I have been testing using a Retevis RT84 as the Radio for a Pi-Star Hotspot for some days now. Fact is, both on TGs and when testing with PC to 9990 (Parrot) my voice quality is very bad. BER in the RF dashboard is 0, max 2-5% when I go out of the house. Ferrite on both ends (Raspberry Pi and...

No, openGD77 is not supported in the MD380 / RT3 single band radios. The hardware is different.
Thanks, good to know, as was about to accidentally buying one of these :(

Can this firmware be flashed on MD380? Can you provide a tutorial on flashing the computer? Thank you!
Old story - There is since a version of OpenGD77 that works great with TYT MD-380 and Retevis RT3. Take a look here: viewforum.php?f=19

Re: Coordenadas satélite

Hola ¿Cómo lo solucionaste? 73 de XE2DJR. It's written above / Lo pone arriba : SK2 + Up or Down / Apretar SK2 y arriba o abajo. Also, this forum is in English.
