[chirp_users] Wouxun UV-KG2UV
by Kenneth Strom VA3KRS 21 Jun '20

21 Jun '20

The Wouxun UV-KG2d radios are: FCC-Certified: WYTWOUXUN04 I own 3 plus a UV-KG3d. Reason bought them as they are FCC-Certified. If you managed to clone them and no Transmit, just enter the TX Frequency and PL Tone (if applicable) in the correct box. And please save the Image File. If you are re-programming multiple radios you can use a cloning cable or simply program them one by one. If unsure, as the Company must have the FCC licenses handy you should find them and read them as they would have the frequencies allocated. A Licensed Amateur radio operator can use one of these radios also on any Amatuer frequency. Not anyone else, only to listen. Besides, they are business radios for work only. If for Commercial use, please program in a Password to block programming access to anyone other than the authorized Radio Programmers for the Company. Programming commercial radios in the 1980s the most channels had to program was 6, that in a large Taxi company. Very few businesses have many, usually one or two. Again, please program in a Password and save the Image file. Kenneth Strom VA3KRS

[chirp_users] Wouxun KG-UV2d will not transmit
by Richard K Parrish 21 Jun '20

21 Jun '20

I programmed the KG-UV2d to operate in the 155 and 460 range. When I key the PPT I get a tone but the transmit light does not come on. It does transmit on the VFO frequencies. I did a reset and re programmed, no change. Any suggestions? Richard K.

David - your write up was thorough. I have been reading the FAQs and Beginner's Guide before my post, but I will check again and I will dissect your notes as well. Nigel - That is a great question, as I do know that we have a license, but I don't know the answer. We bought the VX261s from a dealer, but they are unable to program the smaller radios for us since they were not purchased through them. I will look into the license conditions. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. The error message I am receiving when I go to upload the frequencies to a new R22 is: image.png Any known reason this would happen?

In any case, she, as an amateur programmer, needs to understand the license conditions under which they will be used. @Becky, can you help us by giving the exact error message(s) you received when programming your Retevis radios?

Have new radio and this specific model does not appear on the list when setting up to clone the radio. I have tried every model on the list and I get same result "Radio did not respond. I can see the USB Serial Port (Com3) installed and the USB Serial Converter pops up when the connector cable is installed . (I did install largest drivers.) So as the "newer" radio not listed am I just out of luck or what? I bought cable from BTECH and downloaded CHIRP from WWW.Baofengtech.com/download as instructed. Chris Luppens

Hello, I am new to this. I installed Chrip on a Mac (the latest daily build yesterday). I was unable to download from the GMRS-V1. I was given an error the that length of data did not match expected. Is this a known issue? Is there a work-around? Did I do something incorrectly? Thanks in advance, Aric

[chirp_users] CRT Micron Frequency Issue
by Paul G7BHE 09 Jun '20

09 Jun '20

Hi everyone I have just bought an expanded CRT Micron UV. It has frequency coverage of 136-174 and 400-490. CHIRP is not allowing me to enter frequencies outside of 144-146 & 430-440. Has anyone else encountered this? Is it a CHIRP issue perhaps? I am able to enter the frequencies manually onto the radio and using the OEM software. But frankly that is a really bad program. Thanks Paul G7BHE Sent from my iPhone
