QUESUM (Quansheng) M7 DMR / UV

STAY TUNED!!! 


Ok... I figured this WHOLE thing out! I will try to make some posts/videos in the next few days on my blog BUT I definitely have EVERYTHING working! Whew. It took about 40 hours of my time. www.bageyes.com The ONLY thing that is NOT going to change is this... when you see THIS screen, you are locked down to that ANALOG template. Example... If you add 462.xxx and then you want to add 146.xxx it is NOT happening. This setting is a GLOBAL template setting and if you set everything up THEN change it, you will lose ALL saved frequencies. ALSO... the ONLY cable that works with this radio HAS TO BE the FTDI cable. ALL others give you the "password" issue.

Free The Antenna!!!



Help Pass The HOA Legislation
To Eliminate HOA Prohibitions on Amateur Radio Antennas!!!


Free The Antenna!!!


HOW CAN I HELP?

By sending a letter to each of your Congressional Representatives and your Senators. Is my individual letter important? YES — Representatives and Senators rely on constituent input to decide which bills to support. Your voice counts.


BACKGROUND

The ARRL has secured Congressional support in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate to introduce legislation that, if passed, would eliminate HOA/private land-use restrictions that prohibit Amateur Radio operators from installing antennas at their residences.


WHAT ARE THE BILLS?


U.S. House: H.R. 1094
Introduced by August Pfluger (R-TX) and Joe Courtney (D-CT)

U.S. Senate: S. 459
Introduced by Roger Wicker (R-MS) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT)
