How To: Setup Anytone D878 UVII or UVII Plus for GMRS using CPS (Sample Codeplug)
In this video, we show and discuss the unboxing and initial setup of the Anytone D878 UV II Plus. The 878 series are all Part 90 certified commercial radios that support the GMRS repeater frequencies needed to operate on North Georgia GMRS Network. It is a popular HT (handy talkie) choice with our members.
A brief unboxing of the Anytone D878 UV II Plus is shown first. It includes the radio, battery, programming cable (USB to Kenwood K1 type plug) belt clip, a Bluetooth Push to Talk button, charging cable for the BT PTT button, antenna, charging dock, and the power supply for the dock.
Next, we go into the detailed initial setup. We start by using Anytone Options software (AT Options) to set the correct bands. We need Band 0 (Mode 0) to remain Part 90 compliant and to enable wideband, which is needed for GMRS.
We then jump into the Anytone CPS (computer programming software) and disable the keypad lock. From there, we’re able to verify the firmware running on the radio.
Next, we work through creating and setting up a sample GMRS code plug for the radio to get you on the air. It’s always a good practice to save the factory code plug and settings before you make any changes to create your new code plug.
Reminder: add a dummy Radio ID number in the “Digital” section, since this technically a DMR radio and the CPS requires a value for this field. We use 1234567 in this demo.
Many thanks to our friends at Chatt Radio in Chattanooga, Tennessee for loaning us the radio used in this demonstration. Chatt Radio is a great source for all your amateur and ham radio, as well as GMRS radio, emergency weather radio, antenna, coax, and accessory needs.
