If someone sent a letter in the mail requesting access i guarantee the repeater owners would be horrified

BTWR has been great for me. They have had excellent customer service!

Hahaha @marcspaz

I got it

Also I got an “expired password” pop up when trying to access the repeater map. Anyone else? Or did I get taken by a hacker pop up?

Did you buy the PLUS tdh3? Wondering if they’ve fixed this no wattage on the new version

Try doing a reset and booting the radio in unlocked mode. Use chirp to program a paste and copy gmrs channel list, and modify as you need. Then see if your radio registers on the meter. If not, download new firmware, inside the firmware file is another folder called tdh3 boost or power boost or something to that affect. Turn all values to 255. See if you are good. If so, go back and set channels 8 through 14 to a value of 20 which seems to be around .5/.8 watts on my radio. Good luck. These TidRaidos imo are piles of steaming dog poo. Don’t forget to turn the duplex off in programming if you put any frequencies in that you are not privileged to operate on! But in the end if you don’t enjoy pulling your hair out return the TID RADIOS for anything I mean anything else!!

Nothing worse than a repeater id’ing every 10 minutes with zero traffic ever.

FM CB. FM. He said no one used FM CB. and he would be correct.

You left so much out of your story, I was on the edge of my seat hoping for more. Will you be posting the next chapter of this air raid saga?

Oh interesting, I've been using the forum for awhile and never realized this. Maybe I should have posted this thread somewhere else. My apologies.

Vote on each response? Please explain. I'm not sure I follow. I didn't think I put a voting poll above the thread? I saw the up down carrot on the left of each post. If that is something I added to this thread it was totally by accident.

Use whatever software you like friend. I was just letting others know it was available on Chirp now, as this has been asked about for a very very long time and it’s a popular radio. does Chirp do anything that the oem software doesn’t? Probably not, but if we are all being honest about using all the different software iterations Chirp is by far the most straightforward and not finicky when it comes to device hardware and driver compatibility with different computer operating platforms. Try installing the oem software from a few other mfg’ers (wouxon being one) on an old windows or really new windows version and you have to do a lot of computer fiddling. Just my experience as I’m not a real computer savvy guy.

Ah darn. I’ll see if I can test it out tonight. I haven’t tried it yet.

I figured I would let everyone know, I updated Chirp tonight and saw the Radioddity DB20G is now on the supported radios list. Which Im sure means the other brands of this same radio likely work with it as well. Consider this a friendly heads up. I think we all prefer Chirp over most all oem software.
