Let's Build a Module17!

- Module17 is making M17 more approachable - and also bringing back the golden-era of data radio - 9600bps! Today I'm going to flash the firmware on the module 17, build out the data cable for the FTM-6000 and get on the air!
Get Started:
👉 Pre-Made Module17 Board: www.lilygo.cc/...
👉 Raspberry Pi Zero 2w (Pi4 is overkill for this, Z2W will work great and save some coin): geni.us/eKI2Ne
👉 MMDVM Hat and Case: geni.us/uttt
👉 Yaesu FTM-6000: geni.us/HSe781V
👉 CT-167 Data Cable (Yaesu): geni.us/B0nOHFp
👉 D-Sub 9-Pin Cable Breakout: geni.us/3CXAEV
👉 Screw Kit: geni.us/N57jeeo
👉 Shrink Wrap Kit: geni.us/BJog1Wp
👉 K-Connector Speaker Mic: geni.us/AaN8

Commands:
1️⃣ Install dfu-util: sudo apt install dfu-util
2️⃣ Download Firmware: wget files.openrtx....
3️⃣ Verify That you are in firmware update mode: lsusb
4️⃣ Flash Firmware: dfu-util -d 0483:df11 -a 0 -D openrtx_mod17_wrap -s 0x08000000

Where possible, all links are affiliate links, this youtube thing is an expensive endeavor and every little bit helps.
I was expecting recycled nuggets. This is even better than leftovers.
Thanks, I have found that a lot of people don't watch live streams or don't watch short form videos and so I try to do both sometimes
Just got my two boards in the mail. Now I have what I need to follow along. I am going to try to use and ID-880H as I believe it is capable of 9600 baud.
Check the manual, probably is. Is the cable pinout on the website?
Just found the pinout in the manual page 158. The radio is capable 9600 packet.
@W3DMJ Winner! 🏆🏆
Im SOO glad you you said what DFU meant early on .. in IT DFU means something completely different hehe .. Great video!!
Exactly!
Awesome vid, thanks!
You bet. Super easy setup!
Thanks! Might give this a try. Not great with cables so fingers crossed. Don’t know if you saw but someone is preselling 2 different M17 HT’s
I saw, the M17 boys are working hard!
Yes and they're waaaayyy overpriced
Huh. My Yaesu ft2600m has a 9600-capable db9 connector. Right now I have no interest in M17, but I am ready if that changes.
Might be nice if there was a programming cable option for callsign, etc., even if it is a complex dfu-util command.
There are a lot of 9,600 capable radios out there but for some reason the world seem to have forgotten about 9,600 radio
Steve....can you do a video on using Winlink / other digital modes with the FTM-6000? It appears not many have.
I have to make a winlink gateway first - no 2m gateways near me - after that, sure thing!
Nice work Man, tnx!
Can always count on you VC! Much appreciated!
cool stuff
Thanks
Do you know of any weather resistant implementations of the case?
Not yet.
TO is dressed for a cold summer 😂
Cold AC!
I suppose that I should. I gripe about the proprietary digital voice modes often enough.
There are a few different ways to consume now - this turns your 9600 capable radio into an M17 radio, there is the ZumRadio dongle and there are some software programs as well... but that's not real radio!
@@temporarilyoffline The president of our club (Granite State Amateur Radio Association) is an M17 guy. I've got an FT-991A and an FTM-300DR which will work with the module. If I can unkill the battery on that MD-380, there's the firmware for that. And I'm a linux guy, so mvoice should be easy. I just need to have this pop up to the top of the list. I did buy the module, though, so once again watching you has cost me money. Though I did save a bit of money by going for a solder DB-9.
@@KeepEvery1Guessing Sounds like you got this... and happy to help!
Wait, you’re telling me M17 supports RayTracing?
It does dishes too!
lilygo no longer shows the m17 board. least i cant find it
I just looked at it was there... Maybe a regional thing?
Having dificulty flashing via windows any help out there?
dfu-util should still work. Just need the com port, right?

@@BuddyLee hmm. I don't have much direct experience with it, but try a piece of software called Zadig and reach out in the m17 discord for help.
Watched a bad installation video which through me off course. Your Zadig cpmment sent down a different course and a sucessful imstall
@@BuddyLee sweet, glad it helped!
M17 over HF possible maybe? 🤔
I don't know 🤷♂️
@@temporarilyoffline serial port to J45 on the X6100?
@@prestonm4s The X6100 would only do 300 BITS per second (not kilo- or mega-) until the world catches up with the new regulations, I'm not sure it would would work... but Honestly, I'm not the expert on M17 over HF. Check out their discord for more info: discord.gg/nGYhBZvXk4
Was thinking the same with a 706
