You know, I don't believe Hartmann is alone in his current predicament. I for one originally started with no functionality of the F key, and, gradually, it started working. I think I may have changed something in the key assignment menu.

In addition, I cannot setup channels in the non-preset mode. The button works properly, but no response occurs.

I've also found that this radio has minimal TX/RX...meaning that, using a repeater tower that is line of sight is a challenge. I mean, this rocks for close range operations - but don't expect anything like you would out of a different brand-name radio.

Don't cast this aside just yet, I still have to look into the idea that the bandsplit modification may have dealt with more degration issues than expected or, that the chip/radio itself can be retuned.

Is anyone using an actual Thales Broadband antenna with this badguy?
