That OS setting worked along with setting the Anytone 878 radio to receive Talker Alias.
Menu -> Talk Group -> Talker Alias -> Alias Rx Dis -> Contact First
To make this setting permanent, using the CPS software edit the codeplug under menu option Talk Alias Settings.
Also, you might have to set in the OP Settings under DMR settings, check "Force generate talker alias to modem". This option was needed for the TGIF network.
