you would have learned that if you paid attention of the specifications posted on Baofeng's web site or even Radioditty.  

I seriously doubt that either Baofeng's or Radioddity website make claims that their radios are "open" for transmission on unlicensed frequencies...

That having been said, there is still a serious question about whether or not the DM-32 will allow change to another TalkGroup simply by entering the TG number on the keyboard; a major failing of the "inexpensive" DMR radios before OpenGD77.

I'm pretty impressed with this DM32UV.. The CPM is not too bad.   It certainly looks like Baofeng borrowed some programming peramaters from Hytera and Harris CPM.  If you've ever used either you  will slip right into the Baofeng DMR CPM.  For the most part i've been playing with analog on thjis radio and couple digital channels on MURS Both work great..  The Scanner on this radio is probably the best i've seen in a Baofeng.  Especially choosing off the Zones..  Programming via the front panel is also the easiest i've ever experienced with a Baofeng..    I did purchase one from RadioDitty before i won this one.  Baofeng shipped my prize radio and i received it in two dayx..  I'm still waiting for the one i purchased form RadioDiddy two weeks ago..  Once i get the other radio, i'll put a good test on digital and encryption.  I can tell you though, you analog guys will love this radio just for the mere fact of programing and all the options.. The Zones and Scanning features will get you hooked on this radio.  And the screen is pretty decent.   So far so good.

Just curious: what specific Hytera and Harris CPS programming features improve Baofeng DMR programming?

Are you familiar with either Hytera or Harris CPS?  I'm refereeing to the layout and flow of Baofeng CPS being very very similar.  The menu tree, function settings, Zones, Talk Groups, Digital Contact etc. is very similar to Hytera or Harris, even the radio settings.  It's a very simple layout,  I would suggest downloading the free Baofeng DMR CPS and give it a whirl in programming.  If you need help, i'm happy to assist.
