TID H3 - H8 USERS UNITE

[Crazy]

Hey Y'all. Looking to connect with other owners so we can learn from each other and a start a 'family of friends' with the TID in common.  

I've had mine a year. Still trying to figure out all the functions and codes.  I did a firmware update a few months ago and fried my unit.. TIDradio sent me a replacement unit.. That was nice of them. I just wish they would make a better belt clip that actually stays on the belt, suspender, pocket, etc.

I create separate repeater channels and use the codes for tx and rx, yet still no reaching anyone. I'm in a town with a couple repeaters around, but no noise. Only when I'm close to a walmart or home depot will I hear it go off.

I'm currently south of St. Louis, MO and Marion, IL.

Later.

My poor H8 has been a dust magnet, since I bought my Wouxun 935H

I have a bunch of them.  Passed a bunch out to my family.  Use them to keep in contact with the wife through my repeater along with the mobile Wouxun.  I know most of the ins and outs of the TD-H3

Do owners of these radios call themselves H8ers? 

[LeoG]

Weird. Turned on the H3 and it was in Stun/Kill mode, no access.  Thought I'd have to talk with Luxi again.

Turns out if you use the USB port and their CPS you just reprogram the radio and you're all set.  I have lots of AM stations in my radio for the airport and the CPS won't program those.  But I also use OD Master and it has all those programmed in it so just re-reprogrammed it and it's all back to normal.  Took about 1 minute.

 

No idea what set off the kill mode though.

[LeoG]

Just looked.  Kill and Stun are turned off in the CPS, not sure about the OD Master.

[LeoG]

Kill and Stun are off in OD Master too.

Interesting......
