I've released a new Beta version, which does not "sleep" the C6000 DMR chip.

I will need to continue to work on this, with the people who experienced problems in the previous Beta release, as the C6000 takes 25% of the power during sleep, so it would be better if it could be disabled.

thank you
Ken.

Was the previous version working for you.

If so, there is no need to update. The update actually takes a bit more current (7mA) but I needed to do that, until I can resolve the problem of it not working at all for a few people . i,e DMR Rx stopped working.

Same with level 3.. SERIAL 1803A022xx
Can you try this version on level 3 or 4 (actually I think any eco level would behave the sound, but you may as well try it on 3 or 4)

Just in case the problem is the master reference oscillator output from the C6000, in this version I reconfigure the calibration of the C6000 after I wake it.

However, I really have no idea what is causing this problem

Also, try this version

https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/ ... _reset.zip

It does a full reset and reload on the C6000 chip each time it exits from Sleep mode.

However it would not be practical to use this because this takes 20 milliseconds and could be happening 5 times a second.

The Full Reset version, takes about 1 second to detect the DMR signal but I could hear the audio from my other GD77 via my duplex hotspot when I tested it.

Can you backup your calibration using the CPS and zip it and post it here

Thanks

Did either of those versions fix it for you ?
