I just picked up an Anytone AT-779UV and found it doesn't correctly handle a split CTCSS tone, even though the programming software will let you program one, and the radio itself will display the different CTCSS tone value for TX and RX. My FW version display is 2.30.
I don't see any FW updates on the Anytone website. Anyone know what the latest FW version is for this radio and if it solves the split PL tone issue?
Thanks
Edit: I see this radio is sold by Retevis and Radioddity also. Would be interested in hearing from others if those radios have the same bug. The TX CTCSS setting works okay, but if the RX value is different, the squelch won't open. If I hit the MON button, I can hear the repeater so I know I'm getting in.

Michael, the Radioddity website isn't charging sales tax, and as WayoverThere wrote, they're including an external speaker for $104.99. So little bit cheaper overall, with the added bonus of an

Other than your Santa Ynez split tone repeater glitch, I have found no fault in my two 779’s they even match up well against my Yaesu ft-857d for 2 meters and 70 cms
