Hello all. Lou (W2LPC) here, I need some help in getting my Anytone 868 up and running. If anyone has a working codeplug for central NJ, I would be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.
We just started this group earlier this year just before the changes
to basic groups was made to be grandfathered under the old group
policies. So we won't get charged if our membership goes over 100, but
it will be a while before we see membership numbers get even close to
that anyway, so stick with the group and wait and see. I started
groups for several vintage radio brands and made sure all major
current ham radio brands were covered for transceivers that weren't
already covered. I didn't check on SDR radios, but I would think there
would be existing groups for those.
Another of our groups is hamradiohelp. Try posting there and see what
happens, but probably the best thing you can do is to find a club near
you and email them or get on their weekly radio net (if they have one)
and ask about a code plug for your Anytone radio. Get on a few FB
amateur radio groups (I'm not a big fan of FB myself but use it),
especially ones for your area, and post there, too. See if someone
nearby can send you a code plug. And, if they live hear you, they
might be able to help you with any questions you may have about
setting it up, perhaps even being able to help you do that on your
radio.
I don't have one of these but I was considering buying one, mainly
just to have a better-built radio than my Baofeng HT. I am still
undecided though. HTs aren't all that useful where I live, though I
have a 25W 2M amp in the garage I bought at a local hamfest that I
could use at the house to talk to the net.
