I have a DM-1701 and an Anytone 878UV.?? On the Anytone there are two different areas, one for digital talk groups and another for digital contacts (DMR IDs) that can be displayed on a received signal.?? On the DM-1701 there is only one area labeled digital contacts.?? As I read articles on the web it says you can put either talk groups or digital contacts of the DMR ID type in that area.?? The articles say one or the other but not both??? I know you must have talk groups to create channels.? You do not need to have the DMR database loaded in the radio to use it.
I see lots of articles about how to load the DMR ID database but none about loading the talk groups.?? I loaded several talk groups into the digital contacts area of the codeplug and am using the radio, it works great.?? But I get no display about the transmitting station except their DMR ID that is being sent by their radio.
Can I load both talk groups and DMR ID database into that one area??? Or how do you manage that on a DM-1701?
