Re: Complete Corresponding Source Code (GPLv2 Section 3)
Ouch. You may well be correct and within your rights to make such a demand, but I wish you hadn't actually done so. I fully support the nature and effect of the GPL in all of its incarnations. I also think that it is unfortunate that MMDVMHost etc. and OpenGD77 have fluffed up their licencing polici...

Re: Channel timeslot confusion
To add a little more confusion to the thinking, I am currently in favour of prioritising the channel's TS as configured in the CP. This is mostly for the reason that I have not yet felt the need to specify a TS for any contact. In fact, when i was initially using a 2 channel per repeater CP, I clear...

Re: Channel timeslot confusion
W9YA, your suggestions are all good. Although I can't remember who first espoused it, or what they actually said, I have always been a fan of the "Principal of Least Astonishment" and it seemed that I was experiencing a violation of that principal. Now I know about the long-press of * to disable the...

Re: Channel timeslot confusion
Oh, I see that this is mentioned elsewhere as a known bug: https://opengd77.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1378 It might have been easier to find that if all of my attempts to search the forum weren't met with a response complaining that all the keywords i was searching for (channel, slot, timeslot, etc.)...

Re: Channel timeslot confusion
This is strange. I reflashed FW into the GD77, now at Feb 16 2021. The radio initially obeyed the TS settings from the channels, but after I hit the * key to change timeslots, it stopped obeying the TS from the channels. I would have thought that the TS switching with the * key would be non-persiste...

Channel timeslot confusion
Hi all, Previously I had a pair of channels for each of the 3 local DMR repeaters configured in my codeplug, all in a DMR zone. I used to scan the zone with TG filtering off, and could listen to all traffic. Then I decided to try having a single channel for each of the DMR repeaters and scanning wit...

Re: New owner/user - initial impressions
Hi again. I've picked up the FW versions that have been coming out and am now on FW from Jan 19 2021 on my GD77. I thought it would be worth posting my longer term impressions and experience. I have learned that the squealing audio is instability in the audio amp when the battery is fully charged, a...

New owner/user - initial impressions
Greetings, I am a new owner of a GD-77, which I have had for 5 days now. As a Windows hater and dedicated Linux user, I have had to overcome my loathing of Microsoft, bite the bullet and setup a Win10 VM in Virtualbox in order to wrangle this new radio. Thanks to Scott, AF6MQ and Dale, VK5FSCK who b...
