Oh my!
I find it mildly amusing to read this kind of comment about DMR. I see a never ending stream of posts on various forums about how being a ham has become too easy. People claim the tests are too easy, new hams don't know any electronics, they don't build their own gear, no one learns code. Folks claim new hams are just "appliance users" who expect everything to be plug and play. Etc Etc .......
Then we see posts such as this from an apparently experienced ham claiming that DMR is just too complex for a mere amateur to deal with.
I achieved a working knowledge of DMR shortly after getting my Technician level license, using my very first ever ham radio (an AT-678). It really isn't all that difficult, though (like anything worthwhile) it does take a bit of effort to learn.
I have to call bull**** when I see people write simple minded nonsense like
"The ONLY reason DMR became so popular ...." There are lots of reasons DMR has become popular, besides Chinese radios.
