In the opening post
But you just mentioned the DMR problem right now.
If your radio don't transmit in DMR it because you didn't followed the documented flash procedure:WA5JDM wrote: ↑Sun Oct 03, 2021 3:13 pmAs for what happened during the upgrade, my recollections are foggy at best. What I do know is spelled out in the apparently misunderstood initial report. The radio would not transmit on DMR, I backed up the calibration data and found that it was not correct.
New info, the radio will xmit analog, but not DMR.
I am totally in the dark as to how that happened and I doubt that you or anyone else will figure it out. I have gone back and forth from the baofeng firmware, the radio works, to OpenRD5R, the radio does not transmit on DMR, about 5 times. By the way, just as a test to see what data would persist at f8000, I put a copy of calibration data there from another RD-5R. That calibration data has persisted. The original pattern from the first calibration backup, the one with the un-explainable errors, is replaced by the data from my other RD-5R. The erroneous first 8 bytes are gone.
I'm considering getting a frequency counter to check the transmit accuracy of the radio after restoring it to "original" so many times. If good, there must be a copy of the factory calibration data laying around in that radio somewhere. If you know the answer to that riddle, I would like to hear it.
I hope this post has improved the level of understanding.
Thanks again, you are a trooper,
John

Follow it, step by step, even if the post is long, it's simple, and in the end you will have a DMR featured installed firmware.
Cheers.
