Upgrading the DM 1701 to Open GD77
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 лют 2024
- Here is a very worthwhile upgrade of the Baofeng DMR 1701 DMR radio by installing the Open GD77 Firmware. It makes the radio MUCH easier to use and program and the screen is better too! CPS Software : www.opengd77.com/downloads/PC... New firmware file for the 1701: www.opengd77.com/downloads/re... Donor firmware file: www.passion-radio.com/index.p... Please note that these links are correct as of early 2024 but things can change. I can’t revisit old videos and check links regularly therefore if these links do not work a little research online should soon get you where you want to be.

I'm looking forward to flashing mine. Thanks for the great instructions!
I will have to check this out when the radio arrives, thanks VK3CDE…
Kevin, thank you for the video. My DM1701 gave me a few fits with the COM port and win11Pro. I installed the Dfuse_3.0.6_drivers.zip and it worked!!!
Hi !
Have the same problem,can not get the 1701 work with win11pro,where can i find this driver ?
Many thanks '73
@@maidenjohnnywere you able to find the driver for Windows 11? I'm doing my leg work before purchasing a 1701😅
Nope,i downgraded to win 10.i leave this radio to another ham,there where cable problems too,the cable from Aliexpress had reverse polarity so he mod the cable so now it works but with win 10,havent tried win11pro yet.but anyway its a decent radio for 50$. 😀
Thanks again, I’ve just programmed my second 1701 from your instruction, 73.
Glad it helped
I have been having serious difficulty installing the correct driver. Where can i find it? tried every option and just cannot get it to work. any help is much appreciated
Is it possible to flash the original firmware of this radio? I screwed up and forgot to save a backup. 😮
Just got a 1701 and I've flashed it with GD77 but Im having an issue where it will pulse transmit for a couple of seconds then warn of time out, make any menu change then go back and it will transmit fine the once then go back to refusing to transmit, any ideas?
Thanks for your instruction. 73
Great thanks, 73 from Lincs
You're welcome
it ain't easy with this radio... i've done the upgrade without problems, but after that the cps software does not see the radio anymore... no clue why. however thanks for clear instuction and links!
Edit: different driver is responsible for communication with the radio when not in blinking led mode. Win7 seems not to work with the other driver properly. But running the cps as administrator i got the connection right just once(!) and managed to load the list of repeaters. I will upgrade to win10 and see if that help.
Thanks bro, very clear
You're welcome
Buongiorno, qualcuno mi saprebbe aiutare o Windows 11 ho scaricato il software alla pagina ufficiale ma non riesco a trovare i driver che fai riconoscere la radioma la radio al computer riesco a farli comunicare chi mi potrebbe dare una mano grazie
Olá, tudo bem? O meu 1701 ao ligar está pedindo uma senha de dois dígitos. Esta escrito assim: "Pin Code". Já coloquei todas as combinações possíveis para dois dígitos e nada. Sabe como resolver isso?
I have the Baofeng DM 5R with the gd77 installed. Is the 1701 a better radio?
Yes I think the 1701 is a much better radio
I thought I read that the features are limited to amateur radio frequencies only. Does this lock down the Tx to stay within ham bands?
No
No you can set your band plan .
Question: Does the DM1701 receive FM broadcast radio too?
No
This cps software is now password protected any idea where I can get hold of a none protected copy
password is the software version number
Thnkyou very much for this good Video Kevin!!!. 73's!!!
Very welcome
