A lot of media implies that man-made global warming is responsible for tornadoes and hurricanes we see today when they’ve always been here and even documented, though our records don’t go back that far in human history. But an interesting…
The new AllScan version v0.65 has a couple quirks for Hamvoip if you want to upgrade (note: I upgraded from v0.45). What I do is clone the repo and then after selecting version (git tag for versions), copy the files…
I’ve been playing with W0CHP’s Pi-Star Digital Voice Dashboard and have an early contender for a nice dark mode display. Settings below can be used as a starting point. The Look and Feel screen is a very nice upgrade to…
With the chip shortages some of the radios that the OpenGD77 firmware supported changed to an unbranded clone and the firmware would not work. Thanks to Roger Clark, VK3KYY, and Colin Durbridge, G4EML, they figured out why the firmware wouldn’t…

I don’t think this is documented and would kind of be unique to W0CHP’s Pi-Star Digital Voice Dashboard. Usually with DMR2YSF and DMRGateway you use a special TG, talk group, to activate and use a YSF reflector or FCS reflector.…
Andy Taylor, MW0MWZ and coder of Pi-Star, last put out a request for people to take over parts of the project as he had made it quite complicated and wasn’t going to be able to do it alone. The Debian…
The OpenGD77 firmware project is what prompted me to get a Radioddity GD-77 (rebranded TYT MD-760) DMR radio back when the project was just starting out. And that project blossomed and gave us a lot of capability with a firmware…
