1. Good
2. Same here
3. Same here
4. Same here
5. Did you change the stepping the "Edit" -> "Optional Features" menu?
As I said before, software functions don't all work. However, it allows to program the radio correctly so that's what's important as long as you know it when you buy it.

Unfortunately that's true. While the software has many problems, I highly doubt it's a physical connection on the board... these seem pretty good.

Yes, at least that what happens with me and it works well so...

Thats just normal. It does not show "PC" if it is connected only. It shows "PC" only if you are exchanging programming data with it (writing/reading the channel data). |
What Hartmann said. Just quoting for thruth

Have you even read the manual dude???? You know that there is the option to Lock the Keypad and all switches if you press the ALT button for 3 seconds????
Start reading ..... |
QFT! We're doing our best to help here, but neither of us are making money off of us... helping =/= spoonfeeding. Read the first posts and the manual before asking any questions!

I'm getting to this question now...
