What happened to #Meshcore this past month reminds me of what happened to #OpenGD77. From that moment on the project never recovered and it's been a year since the release of the latest firmware.

Does anyone know how to wipe out an OpenGD77 codeplug COMPLETELY?

Mine is completely fucked up now, and locks up the radio pretty much immediately as soon as I try to switch zones.

First attempt at receiving #sstv from #RS38S was a bust. It was also the first time I tried to program my GD77 with qdmr. I think I got that wrong.

Really struggling to find the root-cause of this #OpenGD77 #MMDVM hotspot simulation sound quality problem.

Testing with Parrot - works for approx 2-3 secs, then breaks down completely to an unrecognisable noise. Definitely sounds like an RFI issue, but cannot figure out where and how. Even with the radio set to mW levels it's not working well.

Next, I will move the antenna far away from the radio by some coax.

Successfully defeated my learning overwhelm and inertia today thanks to some input here on satellite listening!

First bird heard was SO-50 and then later astronaut Mike Fincke making contacts on the space station. With hams from New Jersey, CT, and Quebec. Clear as a bell on just 18° elevation with a Comet SBB5 mag mount dual band whip, Radioddity GD77 and opengd77!

Another listen with a teacher tomorrow!
