Hi Mooneer and David, I've just done a quick hack to "parrot" which is derived from "freebeacon" and the new
Codec2 library with mode 700E looks to be working. I just put "parrot" into mode 700E and now none of the logging is working. Except my every 3mins ident is transmitting, at this point, I don't know if it's receiving. It's transmitting about the same power as 700D. The random noise is not triggering false sync or "maybe_sync". So I'll revert to mode 700D with a command line switch. Looks like there's some other programming considerations.
