# OpenRTX
## Modular Open Source Radio Firmware
OpenRTX is a free and open source firmware for digital ham radios, top-down designed
with modularity, flexibility and performance in mind.
Currently OpenRTX is being actively developed for the following radios:
- TYT MD-380/390
- TYT MD-UV380/390
- TYT MD-9600
- Radioddity GD77
This firmware is *highly experimental* and is not in a usable state right now,
however contributions and testing are welcome and accepted.
For information on currently supported radios and features, see the [Development status](https://github.com/n1zzo/OpenRTX/wiki/Development-status) wiki page.

## Compile and flash
For instructions on how to compile and flash OpenRTX to your radio,
or just run OpenRTX on Linux see the [How to compile](https://github.com/n1zzo/OpenRTX/wiki/How-to-compile) wiki page.

All this was made possible by the huge reverse engineering effort of
Travis Goodspeed and all the contributors of [md380tools](https://github.com/travisgoodspeed/md380tools).
A huge thank goes to Roger Clark, and his [OpenGD77](https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/OpenGD77) which not only inspired this project, but as a precursor, provided a working code example for the GD77 radio family.
Finally, a warm thank you goes to SP5WPP and the [M17](https://m17project.org) community for bringing their libre protocol into our obscure undocumented hardware.
