Hi Bill, Tom, John and everyone! First of all, we should keep in mind that this group is for CHIRP users, not only for HAMs. Now, Bill, I might be wrong, but if I would do as follows: First, make sure you're in frequency mode, and on line A (top line). Let's say you want to program 464.550 on RX and 469.000 on TX, and a Pl code of 100.0, and you want it on memory channel 3. enter: [4] [6] [4] [5] [5] [0] [menu] [1] [3] [menu] [1] [0] [0] [0] [menu] [exit] [menu] [2] [7] [menu] [0] [0] [3] [menu] [exit] radio will say "receiving memory/channel/frequency" (I don't remember what she says, anymore) [4] [6] [9] [0] [0] [0] [menu] [2] [7] [menu] [0] [0] [3] [menu][exit] radio will say "transmitting memory/channel/frequency" And you are done!

He is not programming it for Ham Bands he is programming for his work band and yes it can handle it. CTCSS is Tone Encode or Tone SQL ( Encode and decode) On Chrip you set the Tone Mode to TSQL and then set the values in the Tone and Tonesql boxes. On the Baofeng on the front panel just set the RCS and TCS values and program the frequency in and then set the Duplex to 5.000 Mhz and Shift is +. Hope this helps you out Brad NK8J From: chirp_users-bounces(a)intrepid.danplanet.com [mailto:chirp_users-bounces@intrepid.danplanet.com] On Behalf Of John Gorena Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 2:01 PM To: 'Discussion of CHIRP' Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Programming Question for Baofeng UV-5R Radio If that is a legal radio, then you will not be able to do that because it is out of the programmable range. 70 cm is only 420 to 450 MHz. according to the "US Amateur Radio Band chart".

As long as his license covers portable radios on 469.xxx MHz with the appropriate emissions and power designation, this is all legal. This is unrelated to the 70 cm amateur radio band. Tom KD7LXL

I can do it on mine. The UV5R is a part 90 radio and since it appears he is trying to put that radio on a part 90 licensed system, there should be no issue doing this. I programmed our park system when I was a board member into my UV5, so not sure what would prevent him from doing this. I would put the 100 under Tone and ToneSQL. Set tone mode to Tone.

Amen to that Dan! I just helped my father start using CHIRP. He had a lot of trouble on his older XP system. Seemed that the driver for talking to his Kenwood handheld had 'gone wonky'. After cleaning up the mess of other software issues on that machine, I was able to reinstall the driver and everything started working together nicely. Interestingly, even with the 'wonky' driver, he was able to use the Kenwood software (which I considered odd) so he wanted to blame it on CHIRP. I used it as a teachable moment about drivers and the 'hardware device manager' (it had the cute little yellow question mark next to the usb device for the HT....) Now he can use CHIRP to program his HT, his new mobile, and his HF+ home station. He's a happy ham! FWIW, I continue to be amazed at the incremental improvements in CHIRP. I'm using an older build at home (if it's not broke 'don't fix it') but the latest one that Dad had installed had some nice improvements. Thank you for continuing to support and improve such a universal and useful tool for hams everywhere! 73, Grant Hopper KB7WSD The problem is, your system libraries (DLLs) could be out of whack for > a million reasons, and it's really hard for us to diagnose it remotely > for you.
