Txlock not working as expected #236

Closed Linden1 closed 1 month ago

Linden1 commented 1 month ago

I expected Txlock to work with any channel so went through my channels using chirp, locking any I don't want to risk TXing on. This setting is indeed changed and saved to file, yet once uploaded to the radio the setting is lost for channels other than AM - specifically airband as I have no other AM channels to test with. I can set some up if you need? The setting is again lost for my FM channels when changed on the actual radio as well.

Trust me, it works. What firmware version are you using? And what version of Chirp driver?

Linden1 commented 1 month ago

3.3 with 3.3.0 driver. Is it right that this setting won't function at all if "UNLOCK ALL" is selected?

armel commented 1 month ago

Yes of course. The FLock setting takes priority. The right approach, if you're not a radio amateur, is to choose "DISABLE ALL" and then open exceptions on certain frequencies via TXLock.

I see. Opposite way to what I expected from my experience of these radios so far, but makes total sense. Thank you. Closing
