Very Impressed, and one question

Post by w1njc » Mon Mar 06, 2023 2:27 pm

I am very impressed with this firmware! A big thanks to the devs. I'm using on a UV380 and it's turned it into a very capable radio with a clean and informative display.

My question:
Is there a way to lock the radio while on scan? When I attempt to the lock procedure cancels the scan.

Thanks,
Nick W1NJC

Hello and welcome.

No, there is no way to lock the radio while it is scanning. I don't think anyone has ever asked for that before.

It may not be possible to add this , scanning already uses a lot of different key combinations and there may not be anything suitable left.

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the reply. I understand that it may not be possible, however I think it would be a useful feature. It's fairly easy to inadvertently knock the radio off of scan without realizing it.
That said, I'm quite satisfied with the ability to lock the radio at all!

Cheers,
Nick
