![]() ![]() ![]() Use caution if writing non standard data to the radio in some of the advanced modifications listed below.Keep the radio 1 foot away from your cellular / mobile phone, cordless phone and Wi-Fi devices at ALL times.Don't have the USB cable inserted when you have any channel that may autonomously transmit, such as APRS, roaming or lone worker feature is active (credit to Jerry Kuhn).This has happened to some unfortunate 878 owners previously. Doing so can cause RF to be picked up by the USB cable or charger, and cause damage to the hardware - both radio and charger. Be very careful not to accidentally hit the PTT (Push to Talk) button while you have the USB cable plugged in to the radio, or while it is sitting in the charger.Save yourself a lot of headaches and REBUILD the codeplug before writing it to your radio. You just can’t tell, the CPS won’t tell you unless it is a very early version codeplug. While it might be convenient, you can’t be guaranteed what version the shared codeplug was built under, and therefore whether it would work properly under the firmware version installed in your radio. For the same reason above, I would caution anyone from sharing and using other people’s codeplugs.This keeps the underlying data sent to the radio consistent in version. You must REBUILD your codeplug every time a new CPS or firmware version is installed. Codeplug version, CPS programming software version and firmware version present in the radio must all match in version number. ![]()
