TH-7800 Hyper Channel

[ai8o]

This is menu function #13.

What does this function do?

I am using Chirp to program my TH-7800.

The programming menu has two choices: "Manual" or "Auto".

The default is "Manual".

I have tried changing this to "Auto" in my TH-7800. I have not noticed any effects.

Can I use this to set my Hyper channels using Chirp?

Dan, did you ever figure this out? I just picked up a TH-7800 for my first mobile.

Did you have any issues programming it with Chirp? I haven't beem able to get my Toughbook to talk to the radio yet.

If the TH-7800 is the same from an operational standpoint as my TH-9800, then here is what HyperChannel does: There are six "memory banks"... one assigned to each of the six front panel buttons A, B, C, D, E, and F. The manual for the radio explains that you can copy everything from one of these channel banks .... all frequencies, tones, etc. .... into any of the other banks, and then recall it with the simple push of the letter button. The intent is to permit the user of the radio to quickly change the entire profile of the radio setup. It's a quick way to get all of your settings into another bank of memories, then go into CHIRP and modify whatever you like. I couldn't figure out how to make use of HyperChannel in CHIRP, or whether it is supported. But if you follow the instructions in the TH-7800 manual and copy from one letter button to another, then read into CHIRP, make your changes, and write it back to the radio.... it's all there.
