Tytera TYT MD-380 New Fonts and Graphics

These new fonts are great compared to other default fonts.

These fonts make the screen less busy.

You can take a look at the "SHARED" youtube video


Tytera TYT MD-380 Faults

Tytera TYT MD-380 Faults
We needed to flip our view point and look for Faults.

Cons (some may be fixed in a future firmware at least theoretically):

1. MD-380 has a serious problem with slot timmings (see comments below)
2. Stupid keyboard layout. There were no problems to make the standard 16-key keyboard. I really hate this.
3. Color display is useless w/o backlight. Backlight level cannot be adjusted in current firmware so display is too bright in the dark and tends to drain the battery if turned on continuously while on direct sunlight it would be nice to have more brightness.
4. Beep level cannot be set so it is too loud for a quiet environment. Just turn it off.
5. Some firmware and programming software improvements are welcome.

The problem with the MD–380 slot slipping is that the end-user won't notice the problem. The radio is able to get into the network, receive just fine, and everything seems normal. But it is causing interference to other users. 

Hams should think of it like this: If you have a 2 meter radio that transmits fine, receives fine, sounds good, etc., but your spurious emissions are jamming the aircraft band and public safety bands, does that mean your radio is fine?

Tytera TYT MD-380 DMR import contacts - update contact list

Tytera TYT MD-380 import contacts - update contact list

Can Someone tell me how to go to the DMR Database (www.DMR-MARC.net) and import contacts to my radio TYT MD380 Or upload a file that I can Import into my Tytera TYT MD-380

As to your question, you can go to Index of /DMR/Contacts

The CS700 files are saved as .CSV for easy import using the G4EML Contact Manager The CS750 files are saved as .XLSX as required by the CPS software *The MD380 uses the same files as the CS700 This file is updated daily and can be downloaded from: http://www.foxhollow.ca/DMR/Contacts/ALL-DMR-Contacts.ZIP

to get the ZIP file labeled ALL-DMR-Contacts.ZIP . Inside is a CS750 file broken down by state and area, as well as all the countries (and an entire US/ Canada) file. Here is the "unfortunately" part of the message- we are waiting for an update that will allow the software to import over 1000 contacts into your CPS CSI software to download to the radio. I assume you don't want to manually enter every contact, which is somewhere near 9000 contacts right now. The site is updating daily. The bottom line, you can probably import your home state, but the whole US is out of the question right now for importing until we get our software update, which we were told was happening very soon. It was not in the last update from 7-31.
