You need the AT option exe to make the physical change on the radio. The model information in CPS only lets you change the CPS to program it for that mode. I don't believe I have ever used the "AT" option exe to change the mode. I just programmed the radio with it set through the CPS. I just updated the firmware, V1.27, and rebuilt the code plug. Nothing unusual when I programmed the radio and the code plug was built for the expanded RX and TX range. Maybe somebody else can share their experience. kidphc 1 Quote

"out of band" when I tried to upload. May have been a firmware change. Quote

May have been a firmware change. By any chance did you forget to enter the "secret" password code to set the mode? It's in the second of the two photos. Also if you look at the text file for the at_options app you'll see the same code just before the lines for the various modes listed for the different D878 models. There is a different code for the D578 series. Quote

I believe this is one of the things. Quote

So the only choice is to choose a mode that is already preconfigured to amateur mode or lose the Front Panel Programming." Interesting... My copy claims to be v2.05, but I can't find that quoted text... Or am I misinterpreting your statement (ie: the quote came from somewhere else, and is in contradiction with the CPS)? Quote

Then edited the post to reflect that I had found it and where. Unfortunately, the edit tab doesn't have the option to change font like a normal full reply. I'll change the original post again with strike through font. EDITTED: THIS STATEMENT IS NOT TRUE AND FOUND THE SETTING: Under Optional settings "work mode" tab in CPS v2.05 Quote
