Glenn, as I remember it CB channel 19 is favored by truckers and sometimes channel 17 for east-west travel.

Glenn, I have a well worn, scratched up TH-F6. I don't use memory banks. I have just over 100 frequencies in my Chirp CSV that's shared with a TM-D700 and a Baofeng UV82. Yes, there is a 0 and that's where I put 146.520 hailing frequency. Receiving outside the VHF and UHF range is not good. I'm guessing the combination of filters and the antenna cause that. Because I want to track the truckers on CB on the road and I'm by the sea on vacation. Here are my HF frequencies:

Hi, I'm hoping my new programming cable comes today so I can program my Kenwood TH-F6 hand-held. So I know that it has over 400 memory slots, and it can RX all the HF frequencies. So I'm wondering how it works while in Chirp, so I can plan my CSV file. Since I'm Blind and cannot read the display, I may have questions that might otherwise seem obvious to you.
1: Does it have a channel 0, or do they start with 1? 2: I read of banks of memories in groups of 50 for different bands. Is this have to be kept to, or is it just a convenience? In my Baofeng's CSV file, they are intermixed. 3: Can anyone recommend some common HF frequencies that I can program into it?
Thanks. _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to Bruce MacAlister at w4bru@arrl.net To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscribe@intrepid.danplanet.com
