by far this is the best videos ive seen in two years searching for the nity gritty for my tytmduv380 radio. ive had it for 3 years and gave up and now im picking it back up to learn it and ive learned so much from this video. THANK YOU JIM!!!!!! THANK YOU If you have a paypal or a zelle id like to send some jingle over for your time.
I feel bad for the poor baofeng missing out on all the cool rich kids talk. Digital radio is definitely awesome but kind of takes away the thrill of stretching old technology
I’m not sure how I’m encryption works. My thing is I want my radios to cover everything from GMRS - MURS , marine , regular HAM bands . I only want two channels/ frequencies to be encrypted. Is that possible? I also want at least 2 hand held radios set up that way and one mobile radio that way. As for now we use GMRS radios and regular analog ham radios . We are working on codes etc. to manually encrypt our transmissions . That said we do alot of frequency hopping. You know a GMRS radio that has dual watch and receives vhf and other uhf we set the radios up that way . That way person with ham radio talks on VHF. GMRS guy here’s vhf transmissions and he responds on GMRS ham radio gets GMRS transmissions they can talk back and forth that way . Eavesdroppers only hear bits and pieces. Then add predetermined codes and they can’t figure out what’s truly going on. That’s a lot of preplaning . Also channel/ frequency hopping further helps with security. Lots of pre planning per use . The other people in that group has to know when to switch frequencies/ channels, what codes are being used , how often channels / frequencies should be changed on that particular” mission “/ event. You know should you hop after each transmission or after each conversation. Lots of work that way also slow process that things can get very messy. So digital seems to be the way to go.lots easier if you can encrypt.
Actually, it’s not illegal - for example, if it’s a business radio. There are certain scenarios where it is permitted. Otherwise, it’s just an fyi educational video.
@toysareforboys hey can you help me with a problem? i programmed 3 radios with the exact same data, but on one radio the encryption does not work. i cannot find out why that is. thak you
"Unlicensed" doesn't mean "Illegal" some unlicensed uses are legal and some not. "Unlicensed use" just means that the use is not covered by an FCC license, and in many cases such a licence is not required. FRS regulations can be found here, I didn't dig deeper, but I don't see any mention of encryption being disallowed: www.ecfr.gov/current/title-47/chapter-I/subchapter-D/part-95/subpart-B
I have an md380 and an ailunce hd1. The bummer about having two different brand radios, is they use different enhanced encryption.... So I've read, cause as a licensed ham, I'd never transmit encrypted comms..
Why are encrypted communications illegal, if we have freedom of speech? Freedom of speech, as long as the government can monitor it and decide if they want to send you to re-education camp or not?
Encrypted transmission on these specific frequencies is illegal because they're meant for analog communication. Wi-Fi is digital encrypted wireless communication and is obviously completely legal
0:25 "And then click the yellow left arrow that says read..." should be immediately followed with "And then click File and Save as this will be your backup of original settings in case you mess anything up." Golden rule of radio programming.
