AnyTone 878UVII Plus Quick Start Guide | DMR For Beginners

Always the best info thanks Cody 👍

To complicated for me.

Does this radio have a scan feature that will find and save talk groups and color codes?

Just got my new radio and it already has the most recent version (3.02N). I currently don't own a Windows computer, but rather a Mac. Am I going to be handicapped with all or future updates or downloads? Do you have any special instruction set for Mac users or do I need to return my radio?

How can I get my DMR id?

So this radio is useless without a laptop?

Brother, I am the proud owner of the ANyTone At-D578... the most expensive mobile AnyTone has. I bought it from Gigaparts. Is BridgeCome going to leave me in the lurch with figuring this radio out by myself? Please help... (why would I need to update firmware if I buy a new radio?) KN6ZFM

The epitome of a "pencil necked geek".

Software is only made for Windows. That's a big thing for people who don't have Windows.

Will the Bluetooth on this allow it to connect to iTAK? and does anyone know the best PTT for use with this and peltors?

Many thanks for all these excellent guides/tutorials. Have just ordered the Plus in UK. Don't have a license yet, but with your advice, I can tune in and listen.

Hi, Is the Green button the latest model or the Blue button?

Is this radio still worth it if you only want to use analog for a while? How is it as just a analog radio?

Hi just want analog setup for standard uhf contact don't need worldwide contact. Just dmr to analog uhf. Don't have radio ID can't find where to go.
Thanks

Thank u Cody

Hello. Thank you for your videos. I need a little help with roaming. I know that is not a topic of this video. My "R" is always red and when i try manual roamin i get meesge that this is only avilable in repeater mode. What is that mean? I have set everything properly,but it's not workig or maybe not :)...

Can I use the radio without programming

Just bought one of these from them after watching their series. Wanted to get into DMR but there was no real cohesive direction when you google around. What sold me was their support and educational course that comes with it.

Very very very Best!

Can this be used just to scan radio frequencies like am/fm/aircraft/ security please

Where did Parrot come from? Was that a group name you already knew about?

Can you program business DMR channels to in that radio.. Normally I have to carry 2 radios.

Glad your still featuring videos done by Cody, thanks!!!

Aye Cody, tu l’envoies en Belgique avec un code plug pmr446 avec skybridge ?

I would like to say a big thank you to Taylor who did remote access from America to the United Kingdom to help me sort my radio out. These are very nice people fast friendly service. Thank you Taylor and all the other staff who help me from Damien

Cannot open Communications Port when attempting to read.

Overly complicated but I guess that's how it is, learning curve.

I would like a radio that does Ham analog/DMR and Gmrs will this do the trick?

Okay, DMR... No problem for one repeater or a pi what ever. BUT, the problem arises when you travel. When you are home you have the parrot, the disconnect and about 8 other TG's or private entries in a zone. The system is so happy. You open that zone, change the "channel" and key down. Voila, you're talking.

Now comes the hard part. You want to add 72 more digital repeaters and be able to seamlessly talk to all your peeps when you travel near one of these repeaters. Sure you can simply add the repeater and then select said repeater, click list then select the contact but you're way to lazy for that. You just want to select the zone, (repeater) then channel over to the contact that you put in the zone but alas you must do this for every single repeater.

How in the how and without the help of The Apple Dumpling Gang can we make this mucho ezeeo?

Do I need to hook it up to a computer to program it? I just bought this radio and I don't have a computer. Can I program all the DMR repeaters into the radio from the front panel?

Do they make the software for Mac. This is a huge problem that needs to be addressed. Not everyone has a Windows computer. Windows computers are terrible and nothing but problems and junk so I cant understand why these million dollar radio companies are dropping the ball in making the software for Mac.

I know this video is a year old, but I went ahead and dowloaded the CPS for the 878UVII ver 2.05 so that I can "wander around" and see what you are doing so when I get my 878UVII Plus, I can get even more familiar. Good videos on how to program the 878 UVII Plus. 73s de WB4UR (Virginia)

Hi I'm from the UK
Does this work for UK..

Nice!

Ciao , devo fare anche una reciver group list ? Devo fare obbligatorio ? Grazie e complimenti per i tuoi video! 73 de Iu6puv

will this radio work with the Motorola DMR radio, like DP4401 ? Wold very much appreciate an answer

Hello, thanks for video . Could you send me set up for the UVD8 plus.
Bought 2 of ‘em
We BRAND NEW!
Only wanna listen
For now working on our Tech License
Thank You 😎

I bought one of these 3 weeks ago and have yet to be able to create a working code plug - pretty bummed about it - time to admit my mistake buying it and move on. Maybe help cut the loss by using as an analog radio.

brillant video. intresting in this radio, no knowledge of DMR at all, but this helps. i just need to build or buy a hotspot as i cant reach a DMR repeater

I bought the UV Plus 2 years ago and still can't figure out how it works 😭

great info. subscribed!

Cody, My PC couldn’t read the file from the radio in fact I got an error message saying “cannot open com port”. I had already reseated the connector in the radio because I had the same problem you did, but even after reseating it, it would not read from the radio.

Question I am brand new into DMR and digital. Does digital require internet to access? I am assuming so?

Also how good is the uv878ii plus for strictly anolog in the event that there was no access to internet, etc?

It seems like the most versatile option, and even for just analog it looks like it has the best blend of battery life, durability, and quality tx and Rx , but don't know for sure

This is an excellent vid...no fancy lights, camera angles, or annoying music! Directors/producers take note!
