Simplex works fine. <br />Another small setback is it lacks the ability to program in banks. With my XPR models and MD380 I'm able to create analog banks for conventional amateur radio or digital banks for DMR. The DM-5R has a 128 channel layout which can be grouped together but no bank setting. The Connect Systems CS760 looks promising. Not sure about dual band operation but it appears promising. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08921646945878438273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-89290286192750062572016-11-26T13:44:35.983-05:002016-11-26T13:44:35.983-05:00hmmm...

Used the free programming software from radioddity, a UV-5R cable with transfer rate at 57,600 (only one that works) and then tested, tested, tested...finally success. Talks to a hyterra and TYT radio through a local repeater like a champ..again, not easy BUT it does work. Also does my local vhf and UHF analog repeaters just fine.

I'm looking forward to a TierII radio in October.<br /><br />"Dear Customer,<br /><br />We have an update for you on the status of the BaoFeng DM-5R.<br />Your DM-5R is ready to be shipped. We are confident you will enjoy the crisp, clear sound of the DM-5R. The DM-5R comes out of the box supporting only MOTOTRBO Tier I.<br />Thanks to the help of our Radioddity Review Team, we have found a bug in the software that makes updating the radio to Tier II inherently risky. If upgraded incorrectly, the user faces the possibility of disabling the radio, which would then need to be sent back to the manufacturer for repair. Radioddity does not suggest that you upgrade your DM-5R to Tier II manually. Manual upgrading should be done only by professionals.<br />We are working to fix this. We will re-release the DM-5R in one month’s time with a system update. This re-release will have Tier II standard. <br />Here are your options:<br />Maintain your order status, receive the DM-5R with the current software in the next 5-10 days.<br />Transfer your order to a DM-5R with upgraded software, for no additional price. Receive your radio October 20-30th.<br />Cancel your order, receive a full refund.<br /><br />We are working to provide detailed documentation to assist in the Tier II upgrading process, to support those who wish to upgrade their DM-5R.<br /><br />Please respond to this email and let us know which option you would like to take going forward.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Radioddity"Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04728712075927533285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-33558195866412771502016-09-19T15:07:41.206-04:002016-09-19T15:07:41.206-04:00DMR Tier I: Unlicenced

With a limited number of channels and no use of repeaters, no use of telephone interconnects, and fixed/integrated antennas, Tier I DMR devices are best suited for personal use, recreation, small retail and other settings that do not require wide area coverage or advanced features.

In the US, the 446 MHz range is primary US Government with the amateur radio service a heavy secondary user. Some DMR radios that make it across the ocean have caused interference issues with licensed amateur operations. ETSI DMR specifies two slot TDMA in 12.5 kHz channels for Tier I, II and III.[3]<br /><br />This part of the standard provides for consumer applications and low-power commercial applications, using a maximum of 0.5 watt RF power.[4]Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04019707296242476740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-25836575468707703202016-09-16T14:27:33.700-04:002016-09-16T14:27:33.700-04:00Hey Mr. Anonymous, Why dont you come out from hidi...Hey Mr. Anonymous, Why dont you come out from hiding.

I have heard that it is a possible typo an it is a Tier 2 radio. The CPS will soon let you know in the program if it is, so have a look at it first before buying one. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
