New Beta version with changes to the DMR APRS transmission

In the last version DMR APRS transmission required the Talker Alais text to also be sent.

In this version Talker Alias transmission control has been removed from the Radio Options, and is now 'Per channel', in that you need to enable Talker Alias or DMR APRS transmission on the channel and Timeslot

Options for TA transmission are

Off, APRS, Text, Both (APRS & Text)

thanks all works fine
Moving the TA settings to the channel menu is a good choice

I found that one of the 'flag' bytes in the channel data, was for system called ARTS, which I don't think Ham radio uses at all, and appeared always to be zero, hence I was able to use that data area for this feature.

Ummm.

Can you describe what you mean by no connection?

Did you accidently re-install the driver ?

when does the message occur

can you screengrab the message, as I can't find anywhere in the CPS that contains the text "no connection"


Did you try resetting the settings?
