Although, I cannot see how it would transmit the same frequency it receives It is possible to have a single frequency DMR repeater (SFR) which receives on one time slot and transmits on the other time slot. OpenGD77 cannot do SFR due to the limitations of the RF electronics in most/all of the suppo...

Re: DMR can Tx only if Tx and Rx frequencies are the same

The radio has to digitally handshake with the DMR repeater before it will transmit. If the radio cannot handshake with the DMR repeater (settings error, distance too great, etc.) it will time out after trying for a few seconds and display "timeout". When Tx and Rx frequencies are the same the radio ...

Nice work Roger! Actually sounds like fun. I have a tube of MC1489s left over from the old days and they are always perfect for those unexpected RS232 <-> TTL conversion needs. :D

TYT MD-9600 discontinued? [No]

https://www.radioddity.com/products/tyt ... ransceiver

I've been thinking about getting one, looks like I may need to hurry up.

Re: Satellite mode

Wow 2 days. The first of the two days is already over.

Hopefully there will be other activations of the FM transponder in the future.
