TID Station is a multi configuration tool for the TIDRADIO TD-H3, it was designed as a single app replacement for the separate three applications supplied by TIDRADIO. The difference is that settings can be changed in real-time which gives a degree of remote control. Bear in mind however that this is limited, there is no way for real time data to go in the other direction. So it's not possible to do things such as a signal meter, RX/TX state. There is also no way to initiate TX on the PC, although you could use an external microphone.

To enter Live Mode, select the radio's COM port next to "Live Port" on the front screen. This will place the app into Live Mode, from this point all changes you make will be instantly applied to radio in real time. Thus giving some degree of remote control ability. To return to Offline Mode, just select "Offline" from the "Live Port" setting.
When using this app in Live Mode, DO NOT adjust anything on the radio itself, doing so will desynchronize the app and radio and will lead to problems and possibly data corruption.

There are several extended functions, these are: Signal Meter, Modulation Override, Spectrum Scope and PTT
In order for these extended funtions to work you must flash a patched firmware to the radio. To do this
. Go to the firmware flasher section
. Click Browse and locate H3_240530.BIN on your system. This is the regular firmware file supplied by TIDRADIO.
... Note it MUST be this version.
. Ensure that TIDStation Patch is ticked in the Patches selector
. Select the COM Port connected to your radio in the Serial Port drop down.
. Click start.
. Turn off the radio. Hold PTT, then turn it back on again while still holding PTT.
The patched firmware should now upload to the radio.
Please note that the extended functions only work with the USB-C port.
Top Buttons
📡 - Switches to radio configuration. This is not a GPS function, it's just an icon I selected.
📖 - Switches to the memory channel editor.
📶 - Switches to the power tuner.
📻 - Switches to FM Broadcast Tuner settings.
📊 - Opens the spectrum scope display (Replaces VFO-B)
⚡ - Switches to the firmware flasher.
⎇ - Frequency shifter. Bumps all frequencies up by 355.54432 MHz allowing access to upper UHF (frequencies displayed PC side only)
〜 - Modulation override. Use this to force AM, USB or FM on any frequency.

Radio Configuration Display
===========================
This is visible when the 📡 button is lit. The screen allows you to adjust almost all radio settings. On the right are many settings that can be adjusted by right clicking and selecting from a menu. This section also contains the Serial Port selection for Live Mode connection to the radio. By leaving the Live Port selection in "Offline" you can use the app as a standard config tool.

Each VFO is arranged as such
L N B 12.5k
L N PID B 12.5k
NT 144.00000
NT ^ 445.00000
R S VFO-A
L = Power, click this to switch between [L]ow and [H]igh output power
N = Bandwidth, change from [N]arrow and [W]ide
PID = PTT ID setting for the VFO, BOT (begin of tx), EOT (end of tx), BTH (both)
B = [B]usy lock out mode
12.5k = Click to change frequency step
NT = Click to set or clear CTCSS or DCS codes for TX and RX

S = [S]cramble mode.
VFO-A = Click to change between VFO operation and Memory Channel operation
On VFO-A there are two extra options at the top
𝄽 = Changes the roger beep sent when keying down. 𝄽=No Beep, ♪=Beep1, ♫=Beep2
🗘 = Dual Watch mode. 🗘=Dual Watch, ⛛=Dual Watch Disabled
Spectrum Scope
==============
The spectrum scope will scan a range of frequencies displaying a bar graph for the signal level of each frequency.
Mid frequency of the graph is whatever frequency is selected on VFO-A
The frequency step of the graph is whatever is selected on VFO-A
Clicking bottom right on the three digit number allows you to change the number of bars (steps).
The bar graph employs auto sensitivity. The highest signal seen will always be a full height bar and the lowest will have no bar.
Channel Editor Display
======================
This section allows you to edit the memory channels. Bear in mind that if in live mode, changes here will instantly be applied to the memory channels on the radio.
To edit a channel you can click on the setting you wish to change and type in the new setting. However, this is only really needed for frequencies and the channel name. For other settings, right click on the channel you want to save and select the new setting from the menu that appears. You may also select multiple channels and right click, to change multiple settings at once.

When multiple channels are selected, right clicking and entering a Frequency into the menu will populate all RX frequencies in the selected channels which increment with whatever Frequency Step is currently selected in VFO-A.
