APX8000 Display Screen

[Rudy3145]

On the APX8000 display screen there are 3 lines. Line 1 is Zone, 2 is channel and the 3rd, I found where I can enter a descripment for a FD riding position. I know this 3rd line will chance to show any incoming MDC identifiers. But this 3rd line, the description only shows when the radio is powered on, then after about 5 seconds - it disappears.

Is this the normal, or is there a setting to keep this line perminently displayed? If there is, I haven't found it yet.

Are you using Radio Alias or Codeplug Alias?

codeplug

 

[KK6ZTE]

Use radio alias to keep it on. I use codeplug alias to identify revision (2020A, 2021D, etc) of the codeplug and identify any outliers without using RM.
