Well that will teach me to not jump into conversations before I've had my morning coffee. For some reason in my mind I was thinking 155 was 515. Should have caught myself when I was typing it out but...coffee. apologies for muddying the waters.

I have the QYT - KT8900 (no "D" designation - this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LYIDJI3) and yes, in CHIRP under

Settings those fields are greyed out for me. However, I was able to put

our local SAR frequency (155.415). And, I just turned my radio on and happened to have some SAR traffic. So, I can definitely receive on that frequency. I don't have any authorization to test a transmit, though.
Have you tried just programming it in and uploading it to the radio? I don't recall doing anything special to mine...oh, except for maybe doing
a
reset (menu #48) to start off with (be sure to get a backup image first
in
case I'm wrong).

Tycen,
We are talking about frequencies in the 480 to 520 MHz range which is outside the factory programmed limits of the QYT radio. CHIRP is programmed to honor the factory limits.
