    When did you buy the FT991A? The firmware change came about 2020 and it added 5mhz channels to the radio. If bought after that, then you really haven't changed anything to reset the radio to previous firmware for which it came with.

    Amateur Radio Hotspots

    Openspot 4 Pro works very well, faster boot up time, easy changing modes on the fly with your phone or computer. Have the Zumspot 3.5 elite also, but it has been giving me issues getting on certain modes.

    How many scanners does it take to screw in a light bulb?

    All I can bring to the table is that I have 3 transceivers in the car, 2 scanners, and 4 ht-s that 1 I can use as a scanner. But, then again. I can get my hands on a power source that can power up a city block if need be.
