My factory image, as well as every other dump I've checked that I've done, starts: 00000000 50 33 31 31 38 35 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |P31185..........|
I now understand that P31183 is the HD8, P31184 is GMRS, and P31185 is HAM.
But I have confirmed that TIDRADIO_TD-H3.img does start with P31183, I wasn't making it up. It also says "Welcome TD-H8" — So I think that your test image might actually be an H8 image?
Should I just replace it with an image from the new firmware, or do you want to do something more like have multiple versions for multiple firmware releases?
I have TX220 implemented and have successfully set the bit in my radio. Now that I understand how this works, I should be able to make fairly rapid progress on the rest of these settings.
I did see this in the TD-H3:
_tx_power = [chirp_common.PowerLevel("Low", watts=1.00), chirp_common.PowerLevel("High", watts=4.00)]
According to my manual that should be 2W and 5W respectively. Do you prefer separate commits for such things, or is it less work to do it all together?
[image: image.png] Also, I've seen mention that the firmware is upgradeable, but someone said that they only give it to you if you are in a facebook group. I'm curious about this, as not a facebook user...
