This version fixes a possible null pointer problem in the QuickKeys display functionality.

Thanks to Daniel F1RMB for fixing this

Not sure if others experience this, but if I leave the device on for quite a while (Eco Mode 3, DMR AGC 0dB, 2 line info) - it seems to get "stuck" on RX with a high squelch. Upon turning off/on again - the settings are lost.

No one else has reported this, but it is possible there is a bug.

What mode is your radio set to ? i.e You say the DMR AGC niy also give squelch setting, but DMR does not use squelch

Also.

How long before your radio gets "stuck"

Does it get stuck if the antenna is not connected, or its connected to a dummy load ?

Hi, thanks for coming back.

Not really squelch, but it's like the RX is locking up. It's seen as a very high RSSI, but no incoming DMR signal. If I switch to Analog VFO, I hear a very high noise level, which is not there on other devices.

When the device exhibits this, and you power off / on again, the high RSSI is gone, but so are the settings.

Usually after a long time (+24h), I'll monitor this.
