Morning
Thank you I will try to feed it into chirp later today Thank you,still playing around with Chirp,not a expert.
Thank you

Gooday
I used this unit to get a a channel from a radio on a repeater is this
the transmit or receive channel and the CT tone is positive I think how do I get te other channel end how do I feed it Manuel and with Chirp into my UV5R?
First you have to realize that the frequency transmitted from the source radio is probably not going to be perfect. And second, the cheap rike frequency counter (I have one, too) is probably not going to be 100% accurate. Knowing this, the actual frequency would most likely be 464.375.
Since the frequency captured is from a transmitting radio, the frequency is the transmit frequency of the user (the repeater's RX frequency). In the only document that I have been able to find with 464.375 being used as a repeater frequency, the repeater's TX frequency is 5.000 MHz (which is common for UHF repeaters in the USA).
It is obvious that a 118.8 Hz CTCSS tone is being transmitted to the repeater. It would make sense to assume that this is required to access the repeater. It is possible that the repeater doesn't require a tone, but in that case, transmitting one anyway won't hurt anything.
If the repeater doesn't require a tone and/or doesn't transmit one back (or transmits a different CTCSS tone or even a DCS code), then copy-and-pasting the following into CHIRP-next should work. [454.375000/+5.000/118.8]
If the repeater does transmit a 118.8 CTCSS tone back to the user then copy-and-pasting the following into CHIRP-next should work. [454.375000/+5.000/118.8/118.8]
I would copy-and-paste both into CHIRP creating 2 channels that you can test with.
Just note that depending on where in the world you are located, it may not be legal for you to transmit with your radio on that frequency so any transmission that you may make is solely your responsibility.
