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
Hi Paul,
The driver for the Anytone AT-788UV, Retevis RT95, CRT Micron UV, Midland DBR2500, etc. is currently a work in progress. It currently only directly supports entering frequencies within the USA 2 meter and 70 centimeter ham bands (because the radios used to develop the initial driver were factory set to only cover those frequencies). There aren't any settings implemented yet, as well. It is being worked on.
My Retevis came from the factory set to cover only "ham" frequencies. I have switched it to cover 136-174 MHz and 400-490 MHz. For testing I also programmed the local NOAA WX Radio frequency. I must say, that is about the best audio I have ever heard coming from the local NOAA WX Radio transmitter.
