I heard someone on DMR in Digi Mon (promiscuous) mode - but how can I reply? #8

Firmware 2.27

Here's a scenario I have run into a few times: I have the radio in Digi Mon mode and hear people talking who I want to reply to. But how do I do that? I may see their talkgroup on the display, but I don't have it programmed into the radio. I quickly go to the menu, add and select it so I can transmit to that talkgroup. Or if I already have the talkgroup programmed, I still have to go to the menu to select it.

It would be great to have a more automated way to do this. Some way to say "Whoever I just heard, I want to now be transmitting on that talkgroup, whether I have it in the radio already or not."

Did not tested it but how would "last talkers reply"-function on a button work in this subject?

Oh, that does indeed work. Thanks for the tip!

The key function is actually named LastCall Reply. I assigned it to PF2 Short Key, tried it out, and it does just what I was looking for.

I did find a couple of other issues with the LastCall Reply function, but I'll enter those as separate issues.

I don't have the 868, but on the 878 you can also press the * key while in Digi Mon and it will grab the last call group. Then just use the PTT.
