I recently purchased the DM5R from AliExpress and successfully installed my RD5R codeplug and it works successfully on analog and DMR.
I thought I also used it to have a chat through a GMRS repeater, as my RD-5R successfully works on GMRS and MURS in analog.
Now I have installed the OpenRD5R firmware and it will not transmit outside of the USA Ham 440 MHz band.
Is this a limitation of the firmware I just installed?
Does the RD-5R Open firmware put in transmission limits?

If it's OpenGD77 you have installed on your RD-5R check in Options-> Radio Options -> Band Limits that you either have Off or CPSW7ML wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2023 3:53 amI recently purchased the DM5R from AliExpress and successfully installed my RD5R codeplug and it works successfully on analog and DMR.

Re: Does the RD-5R Open firmware put in transmission limits?
Thank you for this tip and yes, in Radio Options, Band Limits is set to ON.
When I try to change this to OFF using the Menu button, it seems to exit the Menu Options altogether.
How do I toggle this setting?
UPDATE: Ah, the A/B button seems to turn it to OFF. I will test it now, but again thank you!

If I read the whole 95 pages, then why would I pay the membership fee for this Forum?!?
Seriously, though, where/how do I make a donation?
