Re: GD-88, the new Radioddity DMR radio

If I have the correct FCC ID, the GD-77 was only specified up to 470 MHz https://fccid.io/2AN62-GD77 It also looks like the Anytone AT878UV is the same https://fccid.io...

Re: GD-88, the new Radioddity DMR radio

I contacted them regarding the ability to RX between 480 MHz and 512 MHz, and they said no. Whether that means no; never or no; not right off the bat, I'm not sure. I can't remember if the GD-77 had band expansion when it first came out, but it has it now.

Re: Is there any intention to continue this wonderful project?

Thank you to everyone involved in the project! I barely scratch the surface with the modifications done, but what I do use, has made my GD-77 such a pleasure to own and operate. I am not a programmer, but hope to at some point be able to donate to the project, even if just monetarily. Thank you agai...

Re:Deletion of inactive accounts

Hi Roger,

I do not have a callsign. I am a retired/disabled FF/EMT in the US. At some point, I would like to get my license. What do I need to do to not have my account deleted?
Thanks,
Rich

Re: Hello from a Retired First Responder

Thanks for the prompt and friendly replies. I never thought to use the codeplug that came with the CPS. I wanted to start fresh, because the codeplug that I'm using came with the radio and I heard that there were some issues converting original or older codeplugs to the OpenGD77 CPS. Roger, When you...

Hello from a Retired First Responder

Hi All, I am a retired first responder from Pennsylvania, USA. I am not a ham radio operator yet, so my usage is strictly receive only. I own a GD-77, because it can receive DMR and above 480 MHz. Our county's system is located in the 500 MHz T-Band. After owning v1, v2 and v3 Baofeng DM-5Rs and a R...
