Re: Ability to program in a non-standard CTCSS Tone

It's all good, my friends - just throwing out the observation. Perhaps in the CPS, it could be coded to not allow anything but "official" tones? In the meantime, users just need to be aware that a "non-standard" tone may be possible - and thus, double check your work before writing to radio. in any ...

Ability to program in a non-standard CTCSS Tone

Interesting "feature" I found recently... I was in "hurry up" mode, dumping in several new analog repeaters for an upcoming trip. I mistakenly input by hand the wrong CTCSS tone (107.1 vs 107.2, and similar types of typos). I have both an MD9600 and an MDUV380 using the same code plug. When writing ...

Re: DMR Contacts List Details Issue

I think the CPS is awesome! For starters, I have yet to have it simply crash like the factory CPS - I have to make 6 or 7 attempts to write to radio on the vendor supplied CPS. Here - click "read" or "write" and the radio immediately wakes up and starts sending or receiving data. Same thing for firm...

Re: DMR Contacts List Details Issue

OK - I now see and understand the behavior of this component. Check all the boxes.... download. That populates the filter schema. If you don't like what you see, uncheck the field you don't want, clear, download again. This is working properly based on that guidance using "Download From: RadioID.Net...

Re: DMR Contacts List Details Issue

I have it working now... but I had to do it in a round-about way. If I download directly from radioid - it seems that the CPS populates a different set of filter criteria than the schema of the CSV (and the column headers do not match). Instead, I select URL, copy out the URL - bring up a browser, d...

Re: DMR Contacts List Details Issue

Under Extras, Download Callsign Database. Select "RadioID.net" as the download source, it downloads, processes, and then in the table, it does not display any data for "details." I recall it doing that properly before I uploaded a different CSV into the software and seemingly broke it. I uploaded a ...

Re: DMR Contacts List Details Issue

...and the latest 2023.03.07 CPS doesn't seem to fix my error. There must be some stray files left over in an "appdata" or "programdata" directory that do not wipe on exit. I notice, for example, that if I install, uninstall, reinstall, it remembers the last known path to a codeplug and attempts to ...

Re: DMR Contacts List Details Issue

That is good advice moving forward. But for now, it seemed that my actions have corrupted this portion of the CPS and a reinstall doesn't fix it. The CPS will automatically download the radioiDs, and will populate the Radio ID and Callsign columns, but details remains blank. Perhaps the next version...

DMR Contacts List Details Issue [Resolved - Select required fields for Details]

Hi Gang, First time poster - flashed the radio last night and all the community steps work great. But, I am having an issue with respect to the DMR Contacts List download. I originally had taken a CSV list that I had downloaded previously for my radio and uploaded it. Since the first line was not co...
