I have a MD-380 UHV 400-480 unit with a codeplug a friend figured out to use with only 2 (of dozens) digital channels.
ie: a bunch of Analog channels and in the mix there are 2 digital ones.
I've had it about 2 years and use it occasionally at a road-racing automobile track as a corner worker on one of the digital channels.
It works fine communicating with the Motorola radios owned by the track.
So.....
A friend who is also a corner worker wants to do the same thing.
He purchases an MD-UV380 which is dual band with a GPS.
From the disk included I install software MD380G V1.34
Using TYT software MD390 V1.36 to read the code plug from my UHF radio I save that to my PC
I read that codeplug with the MD380G software, with no errors reported, and upload it into the UV380 with a successful report.
Looking at the display on the UV380 it looks different than the 380, but the channels seem to be there.
However, the UV380 cannot hear transmissions either digital of analog from my 380 or from other analog radios on the analog channels. It cannot transmit either.
If I read the code plug from the UV380 it shows all the channels properly and all the settings I compare are the same as my 380 UHF radio.
I'm stumped!
I must admit I don't speak the language for this digital stuff. The friend that figured out how to program has passed away.
Attached are the codeplug files from my 380 and from the UV380 ..
I hope someone can help! I'm sure it is simple but I don't speak the language!!
