10W UV380/UV390 PLUS - WORK IN PROGRESS

[R2ZFN]

Hi.

I tried to calibrate on the native firmware, and nothing worked for me. I set the minimum level of 1W for all frequencies, and the value turned out to be 40-43. I saved it, recorded it in the station, read it from the station - everything is fine. I enter the calibration mode - and at a value of 40-43, I have 2.5W again at low power.

You will need to go to the Calibration screen in the OpenGD77 firmware, and select the Factory Reset option, becuase when the firmware is first runs, it makes a copy of the offical calibration data and uses that copy so that the official calibration is never modified by the firmware

Probably the copy of the calibration data survived the official firmware being installed, and when you reloaded the OpenGD77 firmware, it used the existing copy of the data

BTW.

What were the original values before you changed them ?

If you didn't do the "Factory Reset" in the OpenGD77 calibration screen, the power values should be the values from before you changed the official firmware

Hi !
I couldn't set it up on the official firmware - Low -1W, medium - 2.5W, High - 5W.

On openGD77 it almost turned out, on the UHF range (middle and end) with a value of - 0, the output power was - 0.35-0.4W

OK.

Someone else now has the UV380 Plus and some high quality test equipment and they will send me the necessary data

Hi !

I noticed a very interesting fact. I calibrated the VHF range, then started calibrating the UHF range.
Today I changed the front panel to the old (bright) one + GPS, went into calibrations, and they became as they were before.
Where and how can calibrations be prescribed so that they do not change?

If I send you a complete table of my measurements, will you be able to add them to the firmware?

Salut Daniel,

here is the link to the registers files (original one when I installed OpenGD77 and current one):

https://disk.yandex.com/d/YVdM3s3fLSWoAg

In this directory I have also put a photograph of the label of the radio unter the battery.

Unfortunately, I have not checked output power before I installed OpenGD77.

I have redone the power output calibration on 145.500 for "4W" and I increased "adjust" from 144 (=4 watts) to the maximum value of 255. I measured 9.4 watts. So it seems to be the 10 watts version.
