@@digitalanaloguehamradio My wife bought me an 878 last week for my birthday. Am studying for my licence but until then, am trying to learn about the radio and perhaps program it as a receiver (i.e. scanner) if that's possible - until such time i am allowed to transmit on the amateur bands. Love your method of presenting - easy to follow - and all your good tips. Thanks for the effort in uploading the videos.
Many of us in our group has their call sign and cell phone number set in their power on display so if someone accidentally picks up our radio they can phone us.
Hi Chris, I have an 868, watching and seeing lots of different menu options than I have. It looks like the CPS for the 878 has quite a few more options than CPS 1.3.5 (for the 868)
Chris, excellent video. Much appreciated! Do you know if Anytone is working on a fix for the slowness problem that some people have reported (including myself). This is when you’ve left the radio on for a few hours and when you try to toggle through your channels, or anything else for that matter, everything is extremely slow. A reboot seems to fix it. Cheers
Sorry I missed this question. I have not noticed this. But any tone always recommends initialising the radio. After updating the firmware. Then reload your Codeplug. To speed things up you can turn off the sub band b. Turn off GPS. Turn off additional things you don’t need.
Another fantastic video. Very helpful. Thank you, Chris! I do not like how the white line below the channel name is displayed on my 878 (1.15 CPS). The talk group name and zone name alternate every few seconds. Does anyone know the setting to only show the zone name on this line? Thank you.
Thanks Barry appreciate the comments. If you go to optional settings display to turn off the lines turn off the feature separate display. As for the channel name alternating between the zone I had that and I did not like it. I can send you my code plug to examine. Send me an email I am and QRZ thanks
There is no setup up is best to use an to see where the aerial is tuned and then mark it. Or or you can copy my settings send me an email when you get it it and I will share my settings
bill mcintosh You can either key up on the channel you have programmed or long press the zero button press hash to give talk group ID type in the number of tg and then press transmit
Brilliant Chris. You're laid back delivery is just great and aids such as me to take the info. in. I wish others would do the same. Thankyou.
Thanks Tony, there are loads and loads of videos on this radio on my channel. Make sure you have subscribed and search back about three or four years
Love your videos on the 878. Keep them coming 😁
David Bee Thanks for the comment much appreciated

Thank you Chris! I will be in touch with you.
Are they worth the money & are they hard to set-up?

Great video Chris, how do I re-link after un- linking channel?
bill mcintosh You can either key up on the channel you have programmed or long press the zero button press hash to give talk group ID type in the number of tg and then press transmit
