Part of our response area includes an airport and we are allowed to use the specific airport frequencies to communicate with the tower and ground operations. Can the airband frequencies be programmed into this radio since it is an all-band model, or do we still need another radio for this purpose? View article »
01-10-26 New TwoToneDetect in the works - Python based Hi all, I've started work on a ground-up rewrite of my TwoToneDetect software (website of existing program and forum thread) using the Python language instead of the... 01-10-26, 22:44 pm Hi all, I've started work on a ground-up rewrite of my TwoToneDetect software (website of existing program and forum thread) using the Python language instead of the LabView language that it was originally written in. I'm doing this to make the code more accessible to other developers out there, as Python development doesn't require any expensive tools or programs.

Bought an old laptop with a real serial port which is running MS-DOS. I have the software and the programming cable (Bluemax). I started with one radio. Was able to read it, modify the codeplug, and write it back. No problem. Now I am trying to copy that codeplug to all these other radios. I naively tried "Program Data into Radio" and was told that the... Read more View article »

I'm new to DSDPlus and apologize if this is something I've missed in the documentation, but I've read through notes.txt, set everything up according to that file and the videos I've watched to monitor a local NXDN system, including setting the CC frequency in FMP24-CC.bat and the voice channel frequencies in DSDPlus.frequencies from the RF channels I was able to confirm with a waterfall graph monitoring the CC channel. My problem is that even though DSDPlus shows calls in the event... Read more View article »
