Thanks guys,

This is direct, no repeater involved. This image is a screenshot of what I have, which does not work?

PL is short for Private Line which is Motorola's trademark for CTCSS. Like Kleenex or Scotch tape, PL is often used generically for CTCSS.

Thanks everyone, I figured it out through trial and error.

What Motorola software has as "PL" is DTCS in Chirp. I set up tome mode as DTCS and 664 and it works. Finally.

I'm just learning all this, and it sure would be easier if everyone used the same terms.

TSQL = 67.0 is CTCSS. It is the same as manually programming R-CTCS = 67.0 and T-CTCS = 67.0. Tone = 67.0 is the same as programming R-CTCS = OFF and T-CTCS = 67.0.
