Question: How do you save the date/time?

Post by K7RAN » Thu Sep 12, 2024 10:49 am

For some reason, my date/time setting resets every time I turn off the radio. Is this a "save" setting I'm missing somewhere? Thank you.

What kind of radio do you have. Some of them don't have the ability to do so.

On GD-77/DM-1801, you can enable "Suspend" mode, but this slightly impacts battery life.

Whether the same operation can be performed in RD-5R

It's annoying to lose date and time data every time you turn it off and on

By hardware design, you can't even use suspend to circumvent it.

I have tried this today, and it works. Suspend mode enabled.

Not on a RD-5R, as I wrote. Suspend is not available on this device.
