Thanks Mic and sorry for the late reply. I apreciate the help just have to wait on allan to bring me over as I have no transport on mondays. I dont get whats wrong with the radio it seems to only want to recive TG91 on slot 2 on all Leicester repeaters even though the radio says TG9 not TG91. Thinking that it is a dud DM-5R rebadged as a RD-5R any talkgroup other than TG91 on slot 2 is not working
Great work yesterday everyone. The toilet is really starting to take shape and we finally have hot running water in the kitchen!
Any members requiring an update for their MD-380s I shall be doing some on monday evening at the meeting. By all means bring your set and come and find.me if you'd like that doing. 73 de Adam.

Think Pete's going to be a privvy councillor Alex 
hit ptt. You'll get a 'move to nnnn' voice message back if successful. Remember all ham activity is sent --> TG9 even through repeaters. 73 and if stuck bring the set in with lead and we'll sort it out. 73 Adam.
Make sure the Group Call is Talkgroup 9 only. Leave RX group blank. Create two of these channels for each time slot., store them in a zone just for LR. Add a group call contact called Talkgroup 9 with the ID 9 if not already done. Ok that should get you slot 1 and 2 up and running. The actual 'reflectors' are accessed using a manual dial. Just enter the reflector number under manual dial and
For GB3LR create the channel in CPS make sure you have slot and color code right. Admit criteria should be 'color code free' in call criteria should be 'follow admit criteria'. Untick private call confirmed and data call confirmed.
Re the BaoFeng. Try this and if you're still stuck bring it in and we'll sort it out.
Hi Nathan if you can, I suggest you pop in on Monday night I'm someone can help.
OK I have a problem I have a new RD-5R DMR and had it over a month now but cant get my head around getting DMR repeaters to work I keep trying to get GB7LR to work and can only hear TG91WW. I have had enough now and posted the radio for sale on facebook but a member sujested posting here and asking Adam as he has up to date CP for that radio. So here I am asking nicely before I give up compleatly.
