I have four GT-3 Mark II radios. Bought the first two, then decided I wanted to get spare batteries. Batteries were nearly the same price as the whole radio. I found a GT-3 online, that included a spare battery. Price was only $4 more than the radio and battery. So I bought 2 more radios, that included 4 batteries, and the total cost was less than just buying 4 batteries. Now I have spare radios.
But there is one gotcha. All are Mark II radios. On the first two, I was able to change the power on message. The second two, I can't change it. I set the msg in the "other" form, and it seems to program ok. But when I power off and back on, it's the default.
All 4 radios are using the same programming file. I am using the Boefeng GT-3 programming software. Any idea why 2 won't allow programming the power on msg, while the first two do? Weird!
