aware of this DMR radio programming tool. It seems somewhat like
Chirp (except it's Windows only) in the fact that it can program
various different DMR radios:<br>

Worldwide call and user

available, and directly
importable into any

incorporation of users into

TYT DMR Radios<br>
<br>
Good morning and
happy new year
all,<br>
<br>
I was wondering
if there were
any plans to add
functionality to
chirp to<br>
support the TYT
DMR radios, such
as their MD-2017
(...so last
year) or<br>
MD-380 for
example?<br>
<br>
That's all for
now, 73<br>
<br>
