• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

I have two DMR radios... Radioddity GD-73 works perfectly via my hotspot/pi-star. No issues.
Anytone 878UVII Plus, Firmware v. 3.02n. Does not. This radio worked perfectly via hotspot/pi-star for over a year.... then DMR nothing. Still works on 2 meters/70cm. So, the PTT button does work. On a whim, I added a Group List (never used Group List before) in the Anytone CPS codeplug and the Anytone came to life. So, progress... but......
Facts:
1. Anytone will not key up and be recognized by pi-star. Channel info is the same as the Radioddity... digital, CC1 TS2, 12.5k. Talk Groups assigned to channels, Channels assigned to Zone. Rx/Tx frequency is 446.525 simplex. Radio ID is correct.
2. If I key up on the Radioddity, the Anytone display will light up and I have audio. But nothing via PTT. I cannot disconnect or change TGs on the Anytone.
3. Anytone, while displaying pi-star info brought up by the Radioddity radio, is displaying wrong TS number.
The Radioddity channels are programmed to CC1, TS2 and work correctly.
The Anytone codeplug channels are set to CC1, TS2, but again, the Anytone display shows incorrect TS1 on radio display when receiving Talk Group info via Pi-star. Again, the Anytone CPS codeplug channel info programmed to CC1/TS2, but displays TS1 instead.
-------------------
I got excited when the Anytone display came to life... progress, but not quite there. The solution is out there.... Greatly appreciate any ideas or suggestions!!
