Too bad this is not a DMR radio. Some other custom firmwares have been made for other radios, like the GD77: https://www.opengd77.com/ https://www.opengd77.com

But as far as I know they are still just mods on the original firmware. And DMR is kinda a must-have now for hams. Analog activity is negligible now on the VHF/UHF bands, at least where I am.
The "best" Chinese DMR radio seems to be the D878UVII but it's extremely expensive ($200 or more).
By the way the Retevis RA79 seems to be the same radio. It's cheaper here on Amazon so I think I'll try that. Also, "Retevis" means "Ass fish" in my language so that's definitely a plus for me!
