What is the callsign of the repeater you are listening two?
Do you know what hardware it uses, specifically does it use commercial hardware e.g. Motorola or is using non commercial MMDVM hardware?
If its not a ham radio repeater, its possible it had some from of basic encryption, which causes some partial audio decode but not complete decode.
If it is a non ham repeater, you can try turning off the CRC check, as we think some commercial repeaters deliberately send invalid CRC data with the transmission so that it can't be listened to
WX4F, WA4LOY, N2TEK, W4SNA, W4GG, N4HRS Martinsville, Va. It does it on all six of those repeaters on my 9600 version 2 and version 5. I have tried all the various scan dwell speeds, and makes no difference. Going to test my two Radioddity GD-77's tomorrow, but I don't think it's an issue for those handhelds.

No issue with the handhelds. Time slot filter works properly on the GD-77's.

It appears the new update has fixed this issue. It is scanning great now. Good work guys, and thank you

I have found the DMR filter is the best way for scanning. I am using the talk group of the dmr filter and it seems to be doing about what I was trying to attempt with the time slot filter. Thanks guys for the good work on this firmware.

Hello, I have Retevis RT90, witch is the same radio as MD9600.
My CPS gives me information about Harware Version V02.09
Can I then use the _V2HW.bin version? Is this related to hardware-version?
Anyone done this? Radio information is: S006.009 CPU: V01.27

As stated multiple times, remove to top cover, the HW version is printed on the PCB.
The information reported by the CPS is useless.
Cheers.
