I've learned to 'harvest' code plugs so I can pick them apart, sift the pieces, and reassemble to suit my needs. Please consider sharing yours :-) Thanks, Jeff N0̸MII

The Baofeng DM 1801 is a DMR Tier II radio for anyone that is interested. It appears to be compatible with what hams ar eusing.

I do not know anything about this radio but if you are considering it do your research. At one time the Baofeng DMR radios did NOT do the DMR Tier 2 that is required to use a lot of the talk groups.
I will admit to not having kept up with a lot of this, just want to warn people to be careful.

Re: Inexpensive DMR
Jim Parks
David,
Glad you for those “sea legs” I know the feeling. I started with a Radioddity GD77, then upgraded to the Anytone 868 and had to learn all over again, but I did it. For what it is worth, I have a great code plug for the Anytone that covers most of the DMR and analog repeaters for the western half of Missouri and I’m willing to share it with anyone who would like it.

Jim, I agree with you on the initial difficulty in understanding how to program DMR radios. I was frustrated to no end when I started playing with a MD-380 and again later with the D868UV, but I kept plugging along, reading and trying things, finding what worked and what didn't. Once I finally got my 'sea legs' so to speak, I am really enjoying what DMR and DMR networks have to offer for communication flexibility realizing of course the networking may not be something that can be relied on in a true disaster. I have become quite comfortable programming codeplugs for the two radios I have.

#OzarkCon And now, a word from our prize chairpersons:
#OZARKCON
Every year, we’ve members that personally contribute prizes for OzarkCon. We’ve had some remarkably generous gifts in the past. This year is no exception. We already had a couple of really nice prizes that’ve been contributed from the shacks of your fellow 4-Staters. I’d like to encourage you to do the same. If you have unbuilt kits that you think you’ll not get to, or a well-built kit that’s fully functional but just not being used, or maybe a Key from your collection, or a station accessory gathering dust, consider donating it to be used as a prize at OzarkCon 2019. Everyone loves to take home a prize, and your contribution would be appreciated. Please, limit your contribution to items in new or very excellent condition. We prefer to get the prizes ahead of OzarkCon so we can account for them properly and get them into the drawing sequence. If that’s not possible, we’ll certainly accept them at the prize table during the event. We look forward to seeing you at OzarkCon if you can attend. 72, -Ed, WG5F & Karen, W5KKM-

Re: Inexpensive DMR
Jim Parks
I agree completely with KB9BVN. Even a lot of experience hams are having issues understanding the DMR concept let alone the complexities of programming a radio. Most people off the street who manage to buy one of these from Amazon or WalMart won’t have a clue how to set it up. The only thing that has happened is the Chinese have been able to produce some great radios for very cheap prices and beat the traditional ham equipment mfgs. to the market. I think it is a great step forward in that it allows someone, especially new hams who may not be flush with money, to get on the air in a meaningful way without having to spend a bundle for a radio from Kenwood, Yaesu or Icom. Granted some of the Chinese stuff is junk but several of the DMR handhelds such as the Anytone 868 and 878 are just as good quality-wise an anything from the traditional mfgs.

Walt,
As complex and intricate as DMR is to set up on one of these HT's...I would guess that's highly unlikely. As for me...I'm sticking to good old hand sent CW on HF.
At least this Baofeng model is dual time slot...the other "DMR" rig they had was only single time slot...making it almost useless.
