Re: Public Beta (2021 11 10)

Hello Roger, I have two old GD-77s from 2017 and I still use the beta from 11/10/2021. I have no problem with a reboot here, use the Eco Level 2. Maybe because of the old hardware? Strange that others have problems ... Thanks I know other operators in Germany have tested the private beta and did no...

Re: RD5R display problem

Hi! It's for 99.9% a hardware problem. You can see that all the pixels on the affected line are brighter than the pixels on the other lines - it means that this line lost contact with the driver chip. There is a small, but still non-zero probability, that the following trick can fix it. Use the soft...

Re: Does Software Uploader remember the path to the original firmware ?

Hi, As mentioned in the last line of the flash HOWTO ;-) https://www.opengd77.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1770 Cheers. --- Daniel Hi Daniel, OK, you got me :-). It's there, as well as there is a [+DMR] notification on the window caption. I didn't read the HOWTO carefully enough. With regards, Pavel

Does Software Uploader remember the path to the original firmware ?

Hi! Everytime I flash a radio with OpenGD77, I'm in doubts, whether I have to enter the path to the original Radioddity file to the uploader again, or not. It doesn't show any mark of remembering the path, and clicking on the selection box opens the File widget in default view, and I have to discove...

Re: Incorrect transmitter parameters after install of OpenRD5R

Hi! I read this thread several times and it seems that there is a lot of misunderstandings in it. Let's try to clarify it :-). So, John, the problem appeared after flashing the firmware of your Baofeng RD-5R with OpenRD5R binary image. Is it right ? In one of your posts you write, that the radio tra...

Re: Public Beta (2021 10 02)

The satellite screen is like a special version of the Channel or VFO screen, becuase it controls the frequency and mode of the radio. The logic on this screen is very complicated with lists of satellites and also the requirement that the operator must have already configured the location and the da...

Re: Public Beta (2021 10 02)

Hi Daniel and others, many thanks for the new Beta! What I just noticed: When the radio is freshly flashed, i.e. no date, time, coords are entered, going to Menu/Satellite enters a copy of "Radio Info" submenu to allow you to enter all the data. OK, I understand. But what I don't understand is, that...

Re: TYT MD750/760

Good day Is the MD750/760 the same as the GD77? https://radioaficion.com/cms/tyt-md-750/ Cheers Michael - MM5XT Hi! According to the picturers on the page you've posted, it contains HR-C7000 DMR chip, which is different from C6000, used in GD-77 and its clones. And unfortunately, due to absolute la...

Re: Displaying filter status

Of course disabling TS filtering will lead to some weird audio when both timeslots are actually in use, so keep that in mind on a busy repeater. Sometimes it's not even obvious.... TS1 will go idle, TS2 picks up, back and forth, and you're casually listening and trying to figure out why there are r...

Re: Displaying filter status

Because inverse video represents abnormal configuration, Not On / Off Hi Roger, so, now I can understand the logic behind the inversion of the symbols and its OK. I know that disabling CC is not good for general use, I was also the one I asked, why it causes strange sounds before the reception is e...
