Re: [chirp_users] Can't hit repeater(s)?

Hi Mike, Do you have another radio that works on these repeaters and can you check the settings in the working radio against the UV-5R? Does it transmit on the correct frequencies? Does it receive on the correct frequencies? As others have already suggested do the repeaters need PL to activate? Are the repeaters working? (Don't laugh, it happens) Lou VK3ALB At 13:42 21/11/2012, you wrote: >I can not get my UV-5R to recognize a 2 meter repeater at all. I've >set the offset and every known variable.

Do they have pl tones and did you set them up as such?

Hi I used the chirp software on my radios and it works properly on the UV-5R with bios version 291 but with ver 293 it disables the transmit function.

[chirp_users] Kenwood F6A / D72A
by Eric Shattow 16 Nov '12

I have Kenwood TH-F6A and TH-D72A. Is group memory naming possible in CHIRP? There are also some missing D72A menu settings, like uploading a boot or gps-only picture. I am able to capture serial messages from official programming software as needed. Is there any programmer interest to write the Kenwood vendor-specific support in CHIRP? Eric / KF7SUE

Re: [chirp_users] Offset on UV-5R FW Ver BFB293
by Daniel Marcum 14 Nov '12

Apparently this is an issue on the radio, not with the Chirp software. After programming the offset with Chirp, it operates on the local repeater (with the offset that I put in Chirp) as it should even though it doesn't display the offset on the radio menu. I should have tested this out a little more before submitting the first message. Apologies. 73, Daniel KK4MKZ On Wed, Nov 14, 2012 at 2:00 PM, <chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > wrote: > Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to > chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
