Description
There seems to be a new version of the already supported RT40B model: RT40
Here is an official blog post from end of August 2023 announcing this model: https://www.retevis.com/blog/rt40-is-the-first-dmr-handheld-radio
This is the product page: https://www.retevis.com/rt40-license-free-pmr446-handheld-dmr-radio-eu
In comparison to the RT40B, the new version seems to have a new case, the battery can be charged directly via a USB-C port on the battery, and there are two audio jacks (Kenwood K1: 2,5 mm TRS + 3,5 mm TRS audio jacks) instead of the TRRS audio jack of the older RT40B.
Unfortunately, the RT40B setting in CHIRP did not work for me with the new RT40. It would be nice if this radio could also be supported by CHIRP. Let me know if I can help with that.
