Re: Building doc for OpenGD77 way of doing Talkgroups etc

I posted here since it is here that the beginning of a conversation on the topic "roaming" had started.
Personally, I would like a little research more serious to be done on the possibility of adding the "roaming" function to the GD77 which according to my perspective is easier than some think to implement and that the hardware of the gd77 would allow to do ...
For me it is this function which would be a very big step forward !!!
In North America, (Canada, USA), DMR Marc(DMR +, DMRQ) and Brandmeister works very well when roaming ...
It is also much more convenient and safe to use this function on the move.
He just does the research of the strongest RSSI in the zone where you are and among the list of RPTR, that you created, that he must check ...
Allowing the radio to change RPTR automatically when moving to choose the most powerful one is an important function in my opinion. Especially with a portable at low power, we are often limited on the move ...
I don't see why Australia or other places in the world that this system would be more complicated and less practical than others ...
I understand that there are places that are flatter on earth and less hilly than others making communications more easy, but the feature compares to a cell phone and to improve safety. Distance, interference or a building for example is a condition where roaming is also useful.
With my Anytone, I can, for example, travel 600km and follow the same conversation by changing automatically from RPTR without ever touching the radio and keeping my eyes on the road ...
The Anytone 878 has only one receiver as well and roaming like many Motorola and Hytera.
I think this is an important feature to consider, especially since it looks like you still have room to add code with the latest Beta I saw coming up!
I think this function is worth considering with more importance and great interest!
Thanks for the great job you have already done!
