That is unlikely to be a codeplug problem. If it occasionally transmits on the correct frequency then the codeplug must be good. The fact that it works OK on another radio confirms this. It sounds as if the synthesiser is not always locking on transmit. What frequency are you trying to transmit on? ...

This is something that may be improved in a future release. It should be possible to edit the selected contact using the channel details menu. Then by using that menu you could change the talkgroup for each channel. That won't be as convenient as the direct entry or TG list methods but it will allow...

Talkgroups entered manually through the front panel by direct entry or by scrolling through the TG list apply to all channels. This is by design. It sounds like you are wanting each channel to remember the last talkgroup used on that channel. That would need extra storage which is in short supply, s...

Channels can be configured on the radio using the 'Channel Details' menu. SK2+Green.

One further point to note, When doing a VFO scan the exact nuisance frequency will be skipped but the scan may still stop on adjacent frequencies, especially if the step size is left at its default 2.5Khz. Ideally you should change the step size to be the same as the expected channel spacing (12.5 o...

There are two places that IDs can be stored. The Contacts list and the DMR Database. It sounds like you have loaded the DMR database using the CPS menu Extras/Download Callsign Database. This database is only used to identify incoming calls. It cannot be used the send private calls. If you want to s...

The original firmware in the radio is software protected to prevent it being read. So it is not possible to make a copy of it. This is nothing to do with OpenGD77, it is the way the radio was designed. If you need to restore the original firmware you must obtain a copy from the radio manufacturer wh...

The displayed HW version is not always accurate because the manufacturers made changes to the radio without updating the version number.

You can always have two entries for a talkgroup, one for each slot, each with a slightly different name. Then choose the one you need when building the TG list for a repeater. The good thing is that the OpenGD firmware allows you to configure your codeplug in many different ways, everyone will have ...
