Re: [chirp_users] Blocking Transmit on Selected Channels

It depends on the radio that you are programming. On the radios that I have been involved with (Baofeng UV-5R, UV-B5 UV-82 and Wouxun KG-UV6D), to inhibit TX all you do is set Duplex=off and CHIRP handles the details.

Indeed. Note that the duplex=off setting was a late addition so many model drivers don't claim to support it. If you have one where duplex=split,offset=0.0 works, let us know and we can trivially add the duplex=off capability. We just need to know which models can handle this easily without having to tease out a tx-inhibit bit.

That said, if you've got one where a tx-inhibit bit is the required way and are willing to help a developer tease out the bit, it should be fairly easy.
