The offset won't be in use unless you set the Duplex + or -.

Why do I need a frequency in the offset cell even for a
simplex channel? I was redoing my channel list yesterday
and noticed the radio would not transmit on a channel that
was for simplex crossband use into my base radio. I had removed
the frequency figuring that if it is simplex it doesn't need an offset
entered since it is the same as the RX/TX entries. Well that's not
the case. It's no biggie. But I would like to understand the logic
of needed the simplex frequency entered into the offset cell. Or
maybe I'm doing something else wrong?
