What Firmware Will Enable Talk Alias on a Hytera Pd682 ?

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please exercise not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any budgetary value.
All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a asking such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot exist involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for whatever private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM’southward we volition notwithstanding enforce the forum rules. Your PM’south are non private and the assistants has the correct to read them if at that place’s a hint to criminal activity.If y’all are having trouble legally obtaining software please land so. Nosotros practise not desire whatsoever hurt feelings when your vague mail is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please employ Google or some other search engine to observe a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or private radio requires its own software bundle. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don’t be a cheapskate; just buy information technology.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. I package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you practice not demand multiple versions for each radio (different Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Phone call sign and proper name on screen
Another thing I notice on my GD 77 is that when I’grand talking in a grouping, the incoming station does not have call sign or name on information technology it only displays the radios’ ID number in my display. Other DMR radios prove you lot the call sign and name of the person. Is this normal for this radio? Or am I missing some settings in the software? I haven’t seen any. My radio is registered with the DMR Marc system for it’southward ID number and others encounter my phone call sign when I’thousand talking they meet it on the brandish simply they are using TYT and Motorola’s….The GD 77 works, and it’ ok for an entry level but I recall I’g improve off going with a high end dual band DMR that does what it’south supposed to do… More and more I’m looking at this GD 77 every bit an counterpart dual ring HT more than a DMR radio… They need a lot more bug fixing…
NO
DMR radio will automatically display the callsign and proper name of the contact. All that is always sent is the ID number.
Information technology is everyone’s responsibility to populate their Contact list with the ID numbers, callsign, and name if they wish to run across information technology.
All the same, the GD-77’s supports a maximum of 1024 Contacts due to its limited retentiveness.
I hear ya. I plant a Hytera PD782-U2 on ebay for 250 bucks, so I simply purchased it… at 95 dollars, I might just go on the UD-77 to replace my recently broken wouxun HT. it’ll work every bit my dual band… I’ll go along the hytera with me. There are only few 2m DMRs here, seems similar I can go abroad with UHF in nearly places.
I really like the roaming function, so hopefully I can figure out how to programme that.
GD-77 With Shark RF openspot
How-do-you-do,
Has anyone tried to use the GD77 with a openspot? Can’t get mine to transmit to the openspot. It will receive
on talkgroups, just not transmit through the openspot. All other radios, Motorola xpr’s and TYT MD380 piece of work fine.My openspot is in the simplex style. Whatsoever suggestions?
Thank you,
Beak
I have used the GD-77 with the SharkRF openSPOT on simplex and had no problems. Can you post your XPR channel settings and GD-77 settings side?
GD-77 With Shark RF openspot
Thank you for the reply-Just needed to modify the DMR demodulation fashion.
Thanks,
Beak
But got mine in and put in the local repeater in. Trying to effigy out how this affair works. I was able to become some conversation on the north america talkgroup. pretty neat to talk to someone in Cali when I’m in FL.
someone told me with the MD380 y’all can download the callsign database and then the person’due south location, name and callsign shows upward. Can this be done with the GD-77? (or my Hytera PD682 that’s arriving tomorrow?)
The GD-77 but supports 256 contacts so not very many ID, Name entries may be added. Best to salvage those 256 spaces for TG data.
Ah… Gotcha…
Reviewing the various posts in this thread I think information technology is important to understand what nosotros’re dealing with here.
This is a very low price radio.
So low that information technology costs less than essentially whatsoever of the accessories for a Motorola ‘TRBO radio. All the same those with a history of DMR operation and ownership high stop radios will appreciate the GD-77 is a existent deal, especially given the dual band operation.
N4GIX is right here. While retention is cheap, ever extra cent in build price is important at this price indicate. So yes there are limits to what can be done. I take the names of a few buddies in the contacts only utilise the rest for talk groups. This is the sort of compromise that needs to be made here.
GD-77
I am very happy with my GD-77 for beingness dual band at a very reasonable toll. Receive audio is very adept, and transmit is also good. If y’all demand more contacts, look at the CS750 with 65.280. It costs almost 2 and a half times more but is single ring.
I’ve been messing with this thing for a twenty-four hour period and information technology sure if a squeamish unit. I mean merely few years ago when I got my license, I got a wouxun dual band analog radio for 100 something dollars. It was just a handheld radio to keep with me.
6 years have passed, and I would say chinese radio quality is slightly ameliorate, but look how much price has come downwardly. You lot tin get an analog baofeng for 35 dollars and they do the job for the likes of us.
Then you accept the budget DMR radios from TYT, CS and radioddity that price around 100 dollars for but UHF.
and you have this thing for 95 dollars that dual bands (and does it very well) and lets you get on DMR.
At this price point, You might also spend the 30 extra dollars and go one of these instead of a Chinese analog just radio.
I’m very happy with my purchase. I will keep this around for sure. I accept my analog repeaters programmed in and some DMR stuff.
I wouldn’t heed paying just a piffling extra though for more retentiveness and hopefully someone can practice something similar MD380 tools where we tin can put in worldwide callsign db etc.
I’d say my only trouble so far is how to construction my zones>channels etc… I don’t think that’due south a GD-77 affair though. I can’t figure out how to put all my channels (which really change based on where I’g at) into a zone with all the talkgroups. I’k limited by sixteen channels in a zone, so when I put in the mutual talkgroups (WW, NA, 311, 310, FL, FL SE Regional, and local stuff) I run out of channels by the time I have two repeaters programmed in.
so my PD682 came in and I’ve been comparing the two. I’ve asked few people on the cyberspace, request which radio sounds improve, and people can’t distinguish the divergence between the a 400 dollar Hytera vs a 95 dollar GP-77
on receive, the hytera is slightly cleaner (there is a very slight hiss on the GD-77 that I never noticed until the hytera) and listening to myself on hoseline, the quality ever and then slightly meliorate, but overall the GD-77 is great rx/tx wise.
sensitivity is only about the same. at work I’k barely picking upwardly the nearest DMR receiver, and both open up upward at the same fourth dimension if they practise.
Great purchase. I retrieve this is going to sell similar hot cakes
NO
DMR radio will automatically brandish the callsign and name of the contact. All that is e’er sent is the ID number.Information technology is everyone’s responsibleness to populate their Contact list with the ID numbers, callsign, and name if they wish to meet it.
All the same, the GD-77’due south supports a maximum of 1024 Contacts due to its limited memory.
Not quite true. Hytera DMR radios can send the contact alias with the radio ID number to some other Hytera DMR radio. The receiving Hytera radio can also be programmed to update the alias of an existing contact in the contact list with the new alias that was received.
Then YES, it is possible merely it’due south probably a manufacturer specific feature. I know it works on Hyteras because I’ve sent the allonym of a contact from one Hytera radio (PD982) to another Hytera radio (PD782) and information technology displayed the new allonym and updated its ain contact list with the new alias for an existing contact. My Hytera dealer and I experimented with this characteristic and got it to work.
I have a Radioddity GD-77 on gild and due to exist delivered this weekend.

So Yeah, it is possible just information technology’s probably a manufacturer specific feature. I know it works on Hyteras because I’ve sent the alias of a contact from i Hytera radio (PD982) to another Hytera radio (PD782) and information technology displayed the new alias and updated its own contact list with the new alias for an existing contact. My Hytera dealer and I experimented with this feature and got it to work.
I take a Radioddity GD-77 on order and due to exist delivered this weekend.
Wonder if that’south something you turn on because I did not see any IDs, I’m sure I spoke to a hytera possessor.
It’southward one of the standard congenital-in features. It is on one of screens pertaining to digital operation.
I’1000 not expecting my GD-77 to take the features that my Hyteras take and it’south not a replacement for them either. The GD-77 will simply become 1 of my depression cease beater radios.

I’thousand not expecting my GD-77 to have the features that my Hyteras take and information technology’south not a replacement for them either. The GD-77 will simply go ane of my low terminate beater radios.
Ah. Does the repeater have to he hytera besides? I never saw anyone’s alias when talking I’thou sure I’ve talked to a couple hytera radios
When I left the business firm today, I contemplated which radio to take west me. I took the hytera because it’s the “more expensive” radio. But the gd 77 sure makes me think lol.
My GD-77 was waiting for me at my front door when I arrived home last dark. I charged the bombardment up and started playing with the radio. I can tell it’s a cheap radio but it will go the job done.

Well, an update of my opinion for this GD 77… My radio is working well, and I’ve got some Counterpart repeaters put in so I only need to carry this i radio. I think for the price it’southward a good radio, information technology lacks the ability to have a huge contact list and some other pocket-size things that the loftier priced radios have but overall the GD 77 has good audio, and the transmit audio reports are expert too. One overnice matter virtually the GD 77 is that the antenna post isnt breaking off like they are on that $200 TYT 2017 dual band DMR radio. I’ve read a lot of reviews on that one, and now TYT is shipping spare antenna posts in case you bought ane and your antenna just came off. They even posted a video on how to take the TYT apart, and solder in a new antenna mail, it’s not a very easy prepare either. So I’m glad I picked upwardly the GD 77, matter of fact I bought 2 of them, at $86 you really can’t go wrong. I look at them kind of similar the “Baofeng of DMR ” radios. They are inexpensive, the quality is ok, and they work. My firmware is even so the original, I’ve tried to update it but all the same become an mistake each time using Windows 8.ane and so I’ll go along working on that issue….
I ordered a ii-pack of these radios for C $ 19.99 a couple of days agone. I really expected some kind of mail that the cost was wrong and that the order was canceled.
Simply today I got a post that they were shipped!
The item is ofcourse sold out at present.
Is at that place something written in small letters I havent seen?
