Could it be the second Harmonic of 465.350 ? If you are close to the site, or in view of it, it would be possible to receive either signal in the 465 band or the 930 band. ? Just a shot in the dark.

The other alternative is to have a switch in the software to allow "unlimited" programming, and when this is activated, a big warning pops up that the user has to read - "This is unsupported, you risk damaging your radio, and the author will not be responsible if you proceed.

Anyone can set a radio to display a frequency. That is all it does...display. At best, you will not get the pll to go there. at worst...you will permanently brick your radio. I advise any reputable software author to Not write anything to take a radio past design limits, lest someone accuse them of software that destroyed their radio. As we well know, many Tom dick and harrys who frequent these groups have limited knowledge of how these radios really work. -----Original Message----- From: Dan Smith Sent: 2/26/2013 9:43 AM To: Discussion of CHIRP Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Baofeng around 900mhz - veideo > I wonder if the UV-3R radios are capable of doing the same? > > If one of the chirp developers want to try modifying the software, I > can try it on my UV-3R ___ I had three vintages of UV5R on the service monitor last night. None of them would lock up at anything much above their stated range. None of them generated RF, nor would receive a +3dBm signal straight into their antenna jack. Not conclusive evidence by any means, but I tend to think that the poster of the video is either experiencing a fluke, a weird harmonic, or perhaps is confusing audio coming from the 2m-tuned side of the radio. -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS

Hello, I have a Baofeng uv5r. I use chirp to add channels freqüência, and to unlock it. But the channel painel doesn't allowed me to input freqüentes that are out of. The original range, such as 980mhz! Despite chirp unlock till 1khz for me Dr. André Berger CRM 115.404 / SP Oftalmologista drberger(a)vita-clinica.com www.vita-clinica.com (11) 2691-0118

Gary N9PTC Just because a radio will receive something under some conditions, does not mean that it is "usable". I can listen to WWV in FM mode and hear the broadcast perfectly fine. I can listen to the various NOAA FM weather stations in AM mode and hear the broadcast perfectly fine. In Los Angeles I could listen to the (very near) local AM broadcast station on any frequency on some radios (including FM broadcast-only receivers). _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users

The original range, such as 980mhz! > Despite chirp unlock till 1khz for me Is the UV5R even useful that high? IIRC, we chose the limit upper boundary to be the highest useful frequency it can be used for. If it is really capable of locking that high on receive, then we should probably make it honor the limits set by the user instead of the arbitrary ones we chose.
