Not sure what your friend's radio is but it sounds like they may have CTCSS or PL turned on.

In a few weeks some friends and I are going on a 10 day camping trip. We will be several miles back into a wooded area. I would like to use my use my Baofeng UV-5RA during this trip to communicate with my buddies radio he picked up from a surplus store. I can receive his transmissions but he cannot receive my transmissions. I am not sure what setting to adjust in chirp.
Below is a list of the settings I set in CHIRP for this channel.
Name = TripFreq
Frequency = 462.562500
Mode = NFM
Power = Low
