I too plan on putting in the CB frequencies.

Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Programming The Kenwood TH-F6

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:

Air	118
SEACH1	158.8
SeaHF8mh	8.1
CB19Truk	27.185
CB9Emrcy	27.065

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.
