Add Call Sign to ZumSpot 1.3" OLED idle screen

Post by W4JCH »

I would like to add my call sign to the Idle screen that only displays MMDVM. How would I accomplish this? I am a neophyte when it comes to Linux. Thank you.

The OLED is driven by MMDVMHost directly, the source for that is here: https://github.com/g4klx/MMDVMHost
You would need to modify this file: https://github.com/g4klx/MMDVMHost/blob/master/OLED.cpp (well actually the OLED.cpp that you download) to make the change, and then compile MMDVMHost.

It's not that this isn't doable, but there is some expectation that you understand enough to make those changes, and then compile it.
So, this is not a no by any means, but since that would make your MMDVMHost unique to you - I can't do this for you and release it (or we'd ALL have your callsign on the idle scree - although that would be epic for you).
