Thank you! I am a 74 year old new Ham and you have helped me quite a bit. Phil in Maine. K1ORQ

Thank you Chris. My AnyTone arrives in three days. This will be a big help. 73.

Great video, I've been watching videos for days, waiting for my replacement programming cable to come in, and you're the first I've found that actually explained how to choose which talkgroup you want to talk on. Everyone either shows how to program manually, or with the software, but nobody says how to USE a talkgroup once it's programmed. Thanks again!

Thank you!! This is the first time I've seen the digital monitor function on this radio explained fully, and I've been searching for a couple of days. 73 from Seattle. --Peter, KD7MW

You said you would be happy if you helped at least one person, well then be happy, Chris! It looks like from the comments, you have helped more than one person and you certainly have helped me! I have the 878 but I have an OpenSpot2 and your video was very helpful. I was able to figure out the differences to make it work, but would have been completely lost without you! Thanks! You have a new subscriber!

Very helpful Chris.. I've been away from the hobby for the best part of 30 years.. You can imagine the shock of discovering the new communications landscape on my return a few weeks ago. As I have limited space for long antennas, this seems like a very sound option to get me up and running again... Many thanks. 73-- G4RYO

Thank You Chris always learning from your videos. Kinda like an Elmer Jim K4YNA

This was a great refresher for me, Chris. Thanks. Gus, wd9gus

Great video i was nearly throwing it out the window.

Giving 2EOUKH a big hand for all he does..

Thanks help me a lot I know no body talk about what freq to set radio and why I though first you need to connect to wire x reapters. Is not the case here just pick any simplex not used

Thanks for this video. I think I just got my 878 working with the Open Spot 3. I had to create and add talk group 9. I kept getting a Linker error. However,my menu in the radio is a bit different than yours. I found a command in the list that effectively added the TG9 to my modem Tx/Rx freq. in the VFO. They must have made some changes and updates since you filmed this. Whew, that was tough. I've been at this most of yesterday and about an hour so far today.

Thanks for the help It works. Charlie

Nice!

Thanks for a really useful video. Is it possible to add a screenshot of your Anytone Codeplug settings from the supplied A/Tone software? Thanks

Very helpful! Thanks! Chris K2CVD

I'm going to review all your vids on the 878. I just bought one and the whole DMR thing is unbelievably complicated.

Cheers Chris M7CEB.

Great video that really helped me get set up, thanks Chris. 73 de M7MVF

Thank you for your very informative videos. Trying to learn as much as possible , I am waiting for an OpenSpot. Just some questions to clear up some stuff I am not sure I understand. I noticed that you refer to your computer to make sure you are connected.... is there a way to know you are connected to a TG with just the info. on the Anytone ? When you set up the OS3 do you pick your own simplex frequency or does the OS3 have a designated frequency ? Should you disconnect via 4000 every time to go to another TG ? I see you were connected to 2 TG's ., did not know you could be connected to 2 TG's Thanks again Chris for the way you make your videos, good visuals, clear and slow talking and very informative.

How did you change the colour of your dashboard? Is this an option on the OpenSpot or it comes from the PC?

Thanks for the great video. I am very new to openspot 3 and followed your instructions for my 868. all thought to be working well but when I use the 868 to change to TG 91 and key it only works once. The openspot shows it back to local 9 it will not stay on 91. Am I doing something wrong Thanks Charlie N7CAC

Hi, at 7:08, you press the P2 button to get to memory. My P2 button has 'Main Channel Switch' set for Short Key and 'Sub Ch Switch' for Long Key. Any idea what the setting I need to look for is in the desktop app is? Thanks.

Greatly appreciate your help, but this radio frustrates me.

Is it possible to add a screenshot of your Anytone Codeplug settings from the supplied A/Tone software? Thanks

30 minutes of my life i will never get back. lol

HOW TO SETUP OPENSPOT 3 ON TGIF NETWORKWITH ANYTONE RADIO

I have a friend who has one of these. He plans to use it on DMR both Branmiester and DMARC. I have been searching for a real simple setup. I will be helping him with this and most of the features right now he has no interest in. Just wants to connect to his iPhone then connect the OpenSpot3 to a DMR server and talk. Can anyone point me to a simple video without getting into any other features. Thanks
