does anybody know how to unlock an Anytone 878 after shipping? I’ve pressed Menu and * I have plugged it into the software and the four options to select aren’t showing up. I’m stuck. (mastodon.social)

I believe the band error arises when you have a frequency programmed outside the allocation (amateur vs commercial) for the radio. It must be set in the CPS as well but don't remember where but it is one of the first/early settings you should set.

I would recommend looking it up on the Bridgecom YouTube videos. They can be tedious but they also have some very useful information.

@TrojanHam I solved most of it using their videos. Now just working on getting audio. Thanks for the help!
