I have been trying to program 2 WLN radios supported by chirp and it don't seem to up load DCS tones and when saving the file it does not save the DCS tones ?
This is one of those radios where a print out would help as it does not have a screen.

Patrick,
I downloaded from my radio. I then changed one of the channels to use a DCS (aka DTCS) code. I uploaded to radio and then downloaded from the radio to verify that the channel was updated with the code. It was.
I then save the tab that was edited to have a DCS code and loaded it back into CHIRP to verify that the channel was updated with the code. It was.
Are you using Windows? If yes, after you choose a value from the drop down list, you must either press the [Enter] key or click onto another cell to actually make the choice permanent. If you don't do this extra step, the selected value will not "stick". This is not needed for CHIRP running under the Linux or Mac OS X operating systems.
To verify that you have correctly selected a value, you can click the [Refresh] button at the top of the spreadsheet style memory editor. If the chosen value remains, it was permanently selected.
Another way to do this would be to highlight the memory row and either click the [Properties] button at the top of the spreadsheet style memory editor or right-click the memory row and choose "Properties" from the menu that appears. Make the changes in the Memory Properties menu and then click the [OK] button to make the changes permanent.

Attach your image and tell me the DTCS code and channel you want it programmed in and I will put it in for you.
