GD-77 / OpenGD77: No GPS #29

Closed DC7IA closed 3 years ago

DC7IA commented 3 years ago

qdmr shows a GPS setting, but the GD-77 does not have GPS.

Maybe instead disable the setting to not cause confusion with users?

Similar to the issue #28, I have to support all radios. QDMR does not know which radio gets programmed until the actual point where you load the code-plug to the device. Hence there is this verification step before uploading. When a radio does not support GPS, the GPS settings are simply ignored. I also cannot disable the GPS settings as the GUI is device independent. Again, QDMR shall become a universal code-plug editor.

Maybe just put a small info box saying If your radio does not support GPS, this setting will be ignored.

I mean... I literally tried to figure out how to enable GPS on my radio for several minutes. :joy:

True, I should note that somewhere.
