Further investigation revealed that the CTCSS tone in the chirp program is set correctly, but when I upload the memories to the rig, the rig has the PL tone set to "VHF-"
What does that mean and how do I correct it?

Hi,
I just installed Chirp to program my new 857D. The interface/cable is working fine -- able to download/upload memories to/from the radio.
My problem is that none of the UHF/VHF memories work on the rig if they're programmed using Chirp.
That is, they're in memory and I can receive on them just fine. But, transmitting does not appear to work -- cannot key up the repeaters.
I have quadruple checked the offset direction/amount as well as the PL.
The 10 meter memory entries work fine.
I have an SWR meter on the HF antenna port and it moves a tiny amount when I'm transmitting on a memory channel programmed to a VHF or UHF frequency, as if it's putting the signal out the HF port.
When I program the memories manually everything works fine.
What am I doing wrong?
thank you,
Joseph, kc2yu _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users
