This includes
* Changes to DTMF FM Tx.
NOte. Audio tones of the DTMF to the speaker has been disabled, to fix this problem.
* Fix for GPS on newer radios
GPS power is enabled when you goto the GPS page of the Radio Info screen. But the power is not turned off when leaving this screen.
So at the moment to turn off the GPS power, you need to turn the radio off and on again after viewing the GPS page.
This is just temporary functionality, becuase in the long term, the GPS functionaliy will be moved to a separate menu screen and there will be a setting in General Opions to enable / disable GPS power
The GPS in these radio is not sensitive. It will normally not work when indoors, and even outdoors it can take 5 minutes before the GPS has obtained a fix.
If you go to the GPS screen, and the radio constantly says "No GPS data" your radio does not have a GPS module, or the module is faulty.
Normally if you have a GPS version of the radio, the GPS screen will show the text "Acquiring" after about 1 second, to indicate the firmware is receiving data from the GPS module.
* Fix for VFO Scan.
Long Press Up arrow to enter scan mode
Long Press Down arrow to exit scan mode
* Fixes for VFO Sweep Scan
Gain is controlled by the rotary controller knob on the top of the radio
Up and Down arrows change the center frequency. Note Up and Down arrow direction of change is probably the opposite to the way it should be, however this will be fixed when we change the operation of the Up and Down buttons on all menus
SK2 + Up / Down changes sweep bandwith
Note. The VFO Sweep Scan UI functionality is not fully working yet
