+ | I have finally worked out all the HEX coding in the FPP program for the PRM80. This has allowed me to create a version of FPP that matches the firmware I modified several months ago. | ||
+ | |||
+ | These changes are: | ||
+ | |||
+ | The frequency you need for the modified firmware can now be directly entered: | ||
+ | * E band now allows frequencies between 48Mhz and 78Mhz, covers both 4 and 6 metre bands. (see E band to Six Page) | ||
+ | * B band now allows frequencies between 108Mhz and 140Mhz for all you airband buffs. (see Airband Page) | ||
+ | * U band now allows frequencies between 220Mhz and 250Mhz, to line up with the American 220Mhz band, and | ||
+ | * W4 band now allows frequencies between 25Mhz and 54Mhz to cover the 10m and 6m band. (and CB for those who want it) | ||
+ | |||
+ | There has also been some band edge changes: | ||
+ | * A band now allows frequencies to be entered down to 140Mhz, instead of 146Mhz on both the portables and mobiles. | ||
+ | * TU band now allows the direct entry of UHF CB frequencies (it stops at 480Mhz). | ||
+ | |||
+ | And last but not least, I have enabled the hidden bands of K1 (174-210Mhz) and K2 (200 - 220Mhz) in both a local and a remote variant. please email me if you have suggestions for these bands in the firmware. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The only thing I havn't done is allow High Power on the UHFCB frequencies and the only reason I havn't done it is I honestly cant find it........ | ||

+ | |||
+ | **Please note: This version of FPP will only work with the modified firmware.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sure it will read and write to a radio with normal firmware but weird things will happen. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Download the files and load them into your FPP's BIN folder and have fun.... An even better idea is to save the files in a BIN2 folder or similar under the same PRM80 folder you already have as you can access your origional jobs without killing the unmodified version. | ||
